10 ft SFP+ passive DAC twinax cable

This 10 ft passive Direct Attach Copper twinax cable provides a low-latency, cost-effective link for 10 Gbps connections between switches, routers, servers or storage. It consumes less than 0.15 W and produces zero heat, making it suitable for high-density racks and operating temperatures up to 70 °C (158 °F). The cable is MSA-compliant for broad switch compatibility.

Compatibility and deployment checks

Verify that both endpoints have SFP+ ports and support passive DAC cables rather than active optical transceivers. Confirm the 10 ft length fits your rack layout without excess slack or tension. Ensure the equipment operates within the 70 °C limit and that MSA compliance matches the switch vendor's supported media list.

Replaces fiber optics and RJ45 for short runs

This passive DAC replaces fiber optic assemblies and RJ45 copper for distances up to 23 ft, cutting power draw, component count and acquisition cost. The jump is worth it when you need simpler deployment, lower latency and zero heat in top-of-rack or adjacent-rack links at 10 Gbps. It is not for buyers who need longer reaches beyond the passive DAC distance envelope.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the 508438 DAC cable and do I need to buy SFP+ modules separately?

The package contains the passive twinax cable with SFP+ connectors permanently attached at both ends. No separate transceivers are required.

How do I decide between cable lengths when the maximum passive reach is 23 ft?

Choose the shortest length that spans your rack or adjacent-rack distance; this 10 ft version covers typical top-of-rack and short cross-connect runs within the 23 ft passive limit.

What does the 10 Gbps headline rate mean once the cable is plugged into my switch?

It delivers a 10 Gbps electrical link with sub-0.15 W draw, near-zero latency and no heat, making it suited for 10 GbE switch stacking or server uplinks up to 70 °C ambient.
