HP 487657-001 SFP+ Patch Cable
This HP 487657-001 SFP+ patch cable connects two network devices using SFP+ ports. It is built for data-centre and enterprise rack installations where a direct fibre link is required. The black cable ships new and ready for deployment.
9.84 ft length limits rack placement
The 9.84 ft length sets the maximum distance between connected SFP+ ports. Runs longer than this figure need a different cable or an intermediate patch panel. The patch construction suits intra-rack or adjacent-rack links only.
Check SFP+ port count and spacing
Verify that both endpoints present SFP+ receptacles and that the 9.84 ft reach covers the physical path without tension. Confirm the switch or server has two free SFP+ slots for the dual connectors. Ensure the fibre type matches the transceiver modules in use.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the 3 ft or the 9.84 ft length for my rack?
The 3 ft cable suits short intra-rack links while the 9.84 ft version reaches across adjacent racks; pick the shortest length that spans the distance without tension.
What does the 9.84 ft length mean once the cable is installed in a live rack?
At 9.84 ft the patch cable spans two standard rack heights with enough slack for cable management arms and future re-seating of transceivers.
The cable uses SFP+ connectors — what link speed does that interface cap in practice?
SFP+ connectors support the transceiver's rated speed; the cable itself is passive copper so the link runs at whatever rate the inserted SFP+ modules negotiate.
