Direct Attach Copper Cable SFP+ 9.84 ft

This Juniper Networks cable connects two SFP+ ports with a twinax copper assembly. It is built for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links inside a rack or between adjacent racks. The 9.84 ft length suits standard row spacing in data-centre aisles. Network engineers deploying EX2500 switches will find it matches the native port specification.

Passive twinax distance limit

Passive direct attach copper cables are specified for short reach only, typically up to 7 metres for 10 GbE. The 9.84 ft (3 m) length stays within that envelope, so no active electronics or external power are required. Signal integrity depends on the twinax construction and connector quality rather than optical conversion. Longer runs would need active optical cables or transceivers with fibre.

SFP+ connector compatibility

Both ends terminate in industry-standard SFP+ connectors that plug directly into the EX2500 24-port line cards. The cable is coded for Juniper hardware, so the switch recognises it without additional configuration. Buyers whose switches require a different vendor code or who need distances beyond the passive copper limit should select an alternative media type.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 9.84 ft length or a shorter direct attach cable for my rack?

The 9.84 ft length suits connections between adjacent racks or across a single cabinet; pick a shorter cable only if the switch and server ports are closer together to avoid excess slack.

What does the 10 Gigabit Ethernet rating deliver when the cable is plugged into an EX2500 switch?

It provides wire-speed 10 Gbps throughput with sub-microsecond latency, matching the EX2500’s 24 SFP+ ports without the overhead of optical transceivers.

How does the SFP+ direct attach interface limit the maximum link distance?

The twinax copper construction caps reliable operation at the specified 9.84 ft; longer runs require optical SFP+ modules and fibre patch cords instead.
