DAC 10G SFP+ 5 m Twinax
The DAC SFP+ 10G 5m Twinax cable is a short-range passive copper cable that enables data transmission up to 10 Gbps over a distance of 5 meters. Compatibility with MSA's SFP+ standard ensures easy integration with any network devices. Its simple installation and low cost make it an excellent choice for an affordable and safe data transmission over short-distances in server rooms or data centers.
You can easily connect two different vendors because each end of the cable has a separate compatibility option. (For HP/Aruba devices, select a different model: LO-HPSP-CBL-05)
Our transceivers/DACs can be independently recoded with the LightBoard programmer (shown in the last photo). Programmer sold separately.

DAC cable SFP+ 10G 5m
SFP+ 10G 5m DAC cable is an efficient and cost-effective solution for short distance data transmission. It is ideal for use in modern data centers and server rooms. This passive copper cable offers reliable data transfer at speeds of up to 10 Gbps over a distance of 5m. Our range of DAC 10G cables also includes lengths from 0.5m to 7m.
Direct Attach Copper (DAC) technology means direct connection without the need for optical signal conversion. In other words, DACs are equipped with two connectors in the SFP+ form factor and transmit data via electrical signal only over copper cables. This enables a significant reduction in installation costs, and also minimizes transmission delays compared to fiber optic solutions. In addition, the lack of need to use lasers for optical transmission translates into significant energy savings. Thus, it's a cheaper and more convenient alternative to fiber optics connections for shorter distances of several meters - just one DAC cable instead of two optical modules and fiber optic cable!
Compatibility with the SFP+ MSA standard ensures full integration with a wide range of network devices, enabling easy and fast deployment.
