  • Compatible BrandAddOn
  • 10 Gbit/s direct-attach speed for high-throughput links

Direct Attach Cable 3m Passive

The AddOn J9283D-AO is a passive twinaxial cable with SFP+ male connectors on both ends. It provides a 10 Gbit/s link for network devices in rack or campus deployments. The three metre length suits adjacent switch-to-switch or switch-to-server connections. TAA compliance qualifies it for US federal procurement.

Thermals Noise Power Passive Design

No active components draw power or generate heat along the cable assembly. The passive construction eliminates fan noise and reduces overall power draw in the link. Thirty AWG conductors carry the signal without additional cooling requirements. Operation remains silent in dense cabinet installations.

TAA Compliance Lifetime Warranty

TAA compliant sourcing meets government purchasing mandates for country of origin. A limited lifetime warranty covers the cable against defects in materials and workmanship. The bundle includes only the cable itself with no additional software or adapters. Compatibility is limited to SFP+ ports on supported network equipment.

Questions about this item

How do I install this SFP+ direct attach cable, and what step do people often get wrong?

Insert each SFP+ male connector firmly into the matching port until the latch clicks; the step people miss is pulling the release tab instead of forcing the cable out, which can bend the latch.

What maintenance or replacement will this passive twinaxial cable need later?

No scheduled maintenance is required; replace the cable only if the 30 AWG conductors show physical damage or the SFP+ latch fails to hold.

What limit appears first during sustained 10 Gbit/s use over the 9.84 ft length?

The passive design means signal integrity is the first limit; beyond the rated length the eye diagram closes and errors rise.
