SKU CH-KFQD-ZBW9J

A 7-metre SFP+ direct-attach cable carrying 10 Gbps links between Aruba switches

  • 10 Gbps direct-attach link for high-speed switch uplinks
  • 7 metre reach connects adjacent racks without patch panels
  • SFP+ to SFP+ passive copper keeps latency low
  • Aruba-qualified part ensures compatibility with HPE switches

HP J9285D 10G SFP+ DAC Cable

This HP J9285D Aruba cable provides a direct 10G SFP+ to SFP+ connection over a seven metre length. It suits data-centre racks or campus switches where two SFP+ ports must be linked without separate transceivers. The passive copper assembly keeps latency low and power draw minimal for short-reach uplinks.

Replaces fibre patch cords and transceiver pairs

Use this DAC when the link distance fits within seven metres and both ends accept SFP+ direct-attach cables. It is not for runs that exceed the passive copper reach or for ports that require active optical modules. Buyers needing longer distances or different connector types should choose an alternative solution.

Highlights

  • 10 Gbps direct-attach link for high-speed switch uplinks
  • 7 metre reach connects adjacent racks without patch panels
  • SFP+ to SFP+ passive copper keeps latency low
  • Aruba-qualified part ensures compatibility with HPE switches

Questions about this item

Will the 7 m length reach between my top-of-rack switches?

The cable is 7 metres long, so measure the exact path between your SFP+ ports before ordering.

Do I need any tools or drivers to install the J9285D?

No tools or drivers are required; just insert each SFP+ end until it clicks, and avoid bending the cable tighter than its minimum bend radius.
