Cavo DAC SFP+ CBO MC3309124-005 5 m nero

The BlueOptics SFP+ DAC cable CBO MC3309124-005 5 m black is a Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable designed for short-range 10GbE/SFP+ connections. This fixed-cable solution provides a direct electrical link between compatible SFP+ ports on switches, routers and network interface cards (NICs). With a five-metre length and robust black jacket, the cable is intended for use in data center racks and server rooms where low latency and energy-efficient links are required without installing separate optical transceivers.

Advantages

The DAC design offers low latency and predictable performance by eliminating optical conversion; it consumes less power compared with active optical solutions and reduces components required in each port. The integrated cable and connectors simplify installation and lower overall cost for short-distance 10GbE links. The cable’s fixed assembly helps maintain signal integrity across the prescribed distance and minimizes the number of failure points compared with discrete transceiver and patch-cord setups.

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both endpoints support passive DAC cables and are powered down or follow hot‑plug procedures recommended by the device vendor if connecting live. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive strain; maintain the minimum bending radius recommended by the manufacturer. After connection, verify link status and speed via the devices’ management interfaces and run basic connectivity tests to confirm correct operation.

Recommendations

Use this 5 m SFP+ DAC cable for intra-rack and adjacent-rack connections where 10GbE performance, low latency and energy efficiency are priorities. Confirm compatibility with your switch or server vendor for passive DAC support and follow rack management practices to maintain airflow and avoid mechanical stress on the cable and ports.
