InfiniBand/optický kabel BlueOptics CAB-DAC50M-SFPP-DEC02-BL 5 m SFP+ samec/samec

The BlueOptics CAB-DAC50M-SFPP-DEC02-BL is a 5 m Direct Attach Cable (DAC) with SFP+ male connectors on both ends, designed for short-distance high-speed connections in racks and between adjacent racks. This passive twinax copper cable supports 10GBase-CR electrical signaling and is compliant with SFP+ form-factor standards. It is intended for use with networking equipment that accepts SFP+ direct attach twinax cables, providing a straightforward wired link for switches, storage systems and other compatible devices.

Advantages

This SFP+ male-to-male twinax DAC provides a low-latency, low-power interconnect for short-range 10 Gbps links. As a passive cable it does not contain active electronics, which reduces power consumption and potential points of failure. The 5 m length is suitable for cabling within racks and across adjacent racks while keeping signal integrity for 10GBase-CR applications. Manufactured to recognized multi-source agreement (MSA) standards and assembled from industry-grade components, it is designed for reliable operation in professional networking environments.

Suitable for

• Connecting SFP+ ports on switches and routers within the same rack or adjacent racks
• Short-distance links between storage arrays and servers that accept SFP+ DACs
• 10GBase-CR, Ethernet, FCoE and InfiniBand applications up to 10 Gbps over 5 m

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Length: 5 meters
• Transmission: 10 Gbps (10GBase-CR compatible)
• Cable type: passive twinax copper (DAC)
• Wire gauge: 24 AWG
• Design: compliant with SFP+ MSA electrical and mechanical requirements

How to use

Ensure both devices support passive SFP+ direct attach twinax cables and that SFP+ ports are powered down before insertion if recommended by the hardware vendor. Align each SFP+ connector with the device port and insert until the latch engages. After physical connection, verify link status on the connected devices and configure interfaces according to network requirements. For removal, release the SFP+ latch and pull the connector straight out to avoid stressing the cable.

Recommendations

Use this 5 m passive SFP+ twinax cable for short, high-throughput links inside racks and between adjacent racks. Avoid sharp bends, excessive pulling force and environments with high electromagnetic interference. Confirm compatibility with the specific switch, router or storage vendor and run a test link if required before deploying in production.
