10 Gbit/s SFP+ Active DAC Cable

This 10 metre Axiom twinax cable connects two SFP+ ports at a 10 Gbit/s data rate. It is built for network administrators linking switches or servers in a rack. The active design supports the full 32.81 ft span without signal degradation. Buyers who need a longer reach or a different connector type should look elsewhere.

Plug-and-play SFP+ installation

Each end terminates in an SFP+ male connector that inserts directly into a compatible transceiver cage. No separate transceivers or patch cords are required, which reduces insertion-loss points. The active circuitry draws power from the host port, so ensure the equipment supplies enough current for the cable. Installers who assume passive cables behave the same way often encounter link errors.

10 Gbit/s data transfer rate

The cable is rated for a 10 Gbit/s transfer rate over its full length. This single figure determines whether the link meets your bandwidth requirement. Verify that both connected devices negotiate 10 Gbit/s before deployment.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the 10 Gbit/s link is active after connecting the SFP+ ends?

Check the switch or NIC port LEDs for a solid 10 G link light and run a throughput test to confirm the rated data transfer rate.

What comes in the box and is any extra hardware needed?

The package contains the 32.81 ft twinaxial cable with SFP+ male connectors on both ends; no additional transceivers or adapters are required.

Which length should I choose for my rack layout?

Select the 10 m version when the distance between SFP+ ports is close to 32.81 ft; shorter lengths are offered separately for tighter runs.
