Cavo SFP+ CBO 2032237-3-BL 3 m connettore maschio-connettore maschio 10 Gbit/s

CBO SFP+ cable 2032237-3-BL is a 3 m male-to-male direct-attach copper cable designed for short-range 10 Gbit/s connections between SFP+ ports. Intended for use in rackmount environments and data centres, the cable provides a straightforward low-latency link for switches, servers and network appliances. Its fixed length and SFP+ male connectors simplify installation where a reliable 10 Gbit/s copper interconnect is required.

Advantages

The cable supports 10 Gbit/s data throughput over a 3 m length with low latency and minimal configuration, eliminating the need for separate transceivers. Its male-to-male SFP+ form factor is compatible with standard SFP+ ports on networking equipment, enabling direct attachment without additional modules. The construction is suitable for short-distance interconnects in cabinet and top-of-rack deployments, providing a compact, power-efficient alternative to optical links.

Suitable for

• Direct connections between SFP+ ports on switches and servers
• Top-of-rack and short in-rack data centre interconnects
• Interlinking network appliances and storage controllers
• Low-latency links for virtualisation hosts and compute clusters

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Maximum data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Length: 3 metres
• Physical medium: direct-attach copper cable
• Typical use range: short-reach / within-rack or adjacent-rack connections

How to use

Plug each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on your devices until the latch engages. Ensure both endpoints are powered and that the network interfaces are configured for 10 Gbit/s operation where required. No additional transceivers are necessary; the cable acts as a direct-attach link. After connection, verify link status via device management interfaces and check for proper negotiation of speed and duplex settings.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short-distance, within-rack or adjacent-rack connections and avoid routing it alongside high-interference power lines. Maintain slack to prevent strain on connectors and ensure vents and airflow in racks are not obstructed. For longer distances or environments requiring optical isolation, consider optical SFP+ modules and fibre cables instead.
