Cavo in rame Direct-Attach SFP+ CBO 45W2404-BL 3 m connettore-connettore 10 Gbit/s

CBO 45W2404-BL is a 3 m SFP+ direct-attach copper (DAC) cable with male-to-male connectors that supports 10 Gbit/s data rates. It is designed for short-reach, high-speed links between switches, routers and servers in rack and data centre environments. The cable provides a low-latency, power-efficient connection and is intended for straightforward plug-and-play installation to reduce setup time.

Advantages

The SFP+ direct-attach copper cable offers a fixed, low-latency copper link optimized for short distances, with built-in compatibility for SFP+ ports and reduced power consumption compared with active optical solutions. Its 3 m length provides flexible placement within racks while maintaining consistent 10 Gbit/s throughput. The male-to-male terminated design simplifies installation without additional transceivers, and the robust shielding helps maintain signal integrity in dense cabling environments.

Suitable for

• Top-of-rack and end-of-row switch interconnects
• Server-to-switch connections in data centres and server rooms
• High-density rack installations requiring short-reach 10 Gbit/s links
• Low-latency, power-efficient links for virtualised and storage networks

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ male-to-male direct-attach copper
• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Length: 3 m
• Cable type: Passive copper with shielding for signal integrity
• Typical use range: short-reach interconnects within racks and across adjacent racks
• Compatibility: SFP+ ports on switches, routers and servers supporting DAC

How to use

Install the DAC cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on networking equipment until it clicks into place. No additional transceivers or fibre patching is required. After physical connection, verify link status through device LEDs or management interfaces and configure network settings as needed. For removal, depress the latch and gently pull the connector straight out to avoid stress on the port.

Recommendations

Position the cable to avoid tight bends and sharp edges; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Use the 3 m length for intra-rack and adjacent-rack connections to preserve signal integrity. Confirm that connected devices support passive DAC and SFP+ speeds, and check port firmware or compatibility matrices if equipment interoperability is uncertain.
