10G SFP+ DAC Cable Specifications and Details

A 10G SFP+ Direct Attach Cable (DAC) is a cost-effective solution for connecting network devices over short distances using copper instead of fiber optic cables. Here's a breakdown of the typical specifications and details of 10G SFP+ DAC cables:

General Specifications:

• Type: 10 Gigabit SFP+ Direct Attach Cable (DAC)
• Connector: SFP+ on both ends
• Data Rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10Gbps)
• Reach (Distance): Typically up to 3-10 meters (10-33 feet), although some models may support longer distances.
• Hot-swappable: Yes (can be inserted and removed without powering down the devices)

Additional Details:

• Wire Gauge: Typically 24 AWG to 30 AWG. Lower gauge indicates thicker wires for longer supported distances.
• Jacket Material: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) or LSZH (Low-Smoke, Zero-Halogen) for fire safety.
• Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): Meets relevant standards to minimize electromagnetic interference.
• Power Supply: Low power consumption, typically powered directly from the connected SFP+ ports.

Benefits of using 10G SFP+ DAC cables:

• Cost-effective: Compared to fiber optic solutions, DAC cables are generally less expensive.
• Low Power Consumption: Reduces energy usage compared to some fiber optic options.
• Easy Installation: No need for separate transceivers, simply plug and play.
• Flexible: Suitable for short-distance connections within racks or across rows in data centers.

Important Notes:

• DAC cables have a shorter reach limitation compared to fiber optic cables.
• Exceeding the recommended distance can lead to signal degradation and performance issues.
• Ensure compatibility: Verify that the chosen DAC cable is compatible with the SFP+ ports on your devices.
• Bending radius: Avoid tight bends that can damage the cable.

Applications:

• Connecting 10 Gigabit Ethernet devices within short distances, such as within a rack or across rows in data centers.
• High-performance computing clusters where low latency and cost-effectiveness are important.
• Network upgrades where existing copper infrastructure can be leveraged for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections.
