Direct-attach SFP+ cable

This is a 9.84 ft black passive DAC assembly with SFP+ connectors on both ends. It carries Ethernet traffic between two SFP+ ports without an external power supply. The fixed length suits rack-to-rack or intra-rack links where a pre-terminated copper run is preferred over optical modules.

Suits installers who need a ready-made 9.84 ft

Buyers who require a different length, an active cable for longer reach, or fibre optics for electromagnetic immunity should choose another product. The cable is also unsuitable for ports that only accept optical transceivers or for links that exceed the passive copper distance budget.

9.84 ft fixed passive length

The single deciding specification is the 9.84 ft passive copper construction. If the required run is shorter, longer, or demands active equalisation or optical media, this part will not fit the installation.

Questions about this item

Will the SFP+ connectors on this 9.84 ft cable fit standard SFP+ ports on my switch?

Yes, both ends use the SFP+ Network connector type that matches standard SFP+ ports.

How do I install the 90Y9430 cable and what step is often missed?

Insert each SFP+ end straight into the port until the latch clicks; the step often missed is pushing far enough to hear that click.

When should I replace this 9.84 ft SFP+ cable?

Replace it if the latch tabs break, the connectors show bent pins, or link errors appear that disappear with a known-good cable.
