Compatible SFP+ Twinax Cable

The STARTECH SFPH10GBC05M is a Cisco SFP-H10GB-CU50CM compatible direct-attach copper cable with SFP+ latching plugs on both ends. It supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet for short-distance in-rack connections between switches and servers. The passive twinax design offers low latency and low power consumption as a cost-effective alternative to fiber-optic assemblies. Hot-swappable operation allows upgrades without network disruption.

Suitable Applications and Limits

This cable suits network administrators building 10 GbE links inside a single rack where Cisco-compatible SFP+ ports are used. It meets MSA industry standards and is programmed for Cisco-brand switches and routers. Buyers who need longer reach beyond 1.6 ft, fiber-based connectivity, or compatibility with non-Cisco SFP+ implementations should evaluate other options.

Deciding Specification

The critical specification is the 1.6 ft length, which restricts use to adjacent or nearby devices within the same rack. Verify that the switch or router SFP+ ports accept Cisco-programmed passive copper cables before purchasing.

Highlights

  • 6 ft cable fits tight rack spaces
  • 10 Gigabit Ethernet speed over copper
  • 30 AWG twinax keeps latency low
  • MSA compliant for multi-vendor switches
  • Hot-swappable SFP+ ends cut downtime
