## Long description

The StarTech.com HPE JD097C Compatible 3m 10G SFP+ to SFP+ Direct Attach Cable Twinax (JD097CST) is a 3 meter passive SFP+ Twinax copper cable engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. It features SFP+ (Mini-GBIC) connectors on both ends, is designed to be compatible with HPE JD097C ports, and is intended for short-distance, in-rack or adjacent-device links where a low-power, low-latency connection is required.
Advantages
This passive DAC cable provides 10 Gbps throughput with low latency and reduced power consumption compared with active optical solutions. As a Twinax copper assembly it offers a cost-effective alternative to fiber for short runs, is hot-swappable to simplify upgrades and maintenance, and is manufactured and tested for compatibility with HPE-compatible SFP+ ports. The product is covered by StarTech.com’s lifetime warranty and includes lifetime multilingual technical support.
Suitable for
 Short-distance point-to-point links between switches and servers within a rack
 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections over SFP+ ports
 Data center top-of-rack or end-of-row connections requiring low latency
 Upgrades or replacements where hot-swappable, plug-and-play cabling is needed
Key specifications
 Length: 3 m
 Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+ (Twinax copper, passive)
 Data rate: 10 Gbps
 Compatibility: HPE JD097C compatible (StarTech.com MPN: JD097CST)
 Use case: Short-reach, in-rack/direct-attach connections
How to use
Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices to be connected, ensuring proper seating until the connector latch engages. Because the cable is passive and hot-swappable, it can be installed or removed while devices are powered, but follow your equipment vendor’s hot-swap procedures. Verify link status on both devices after connection and configure network settings as required by your environment.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, use this cable for short-reach links up to 3 meters between compatible SFP+ ports. Confirm compatibility with the target device (HPE-compatible SFP+ ports such as JD097C) and avoid routing the cable near high-interference sources; for longer distances or optical isolation requirements choose appropriate fiber-optic transceivers instead.
