Cavo DAC BlueLAN compatibile BlueOptics MCP2103-X001B, SFP+ su SFP+, passivo, 10 Gbit/s, 1 m, nero (MCP2103-X001B-BL)

Direct Attach Copper (DAC) SFP+ cable BlueOptics MCP2103-X001B passive 30 m provides a wired 10 Gigabit link between SFP+ ports on switches, servers and storage arrays. The cable is a factory-terminated copper assembly that connects SFP+ interfaces without the need for separate optical transceivers. Its passive design keeps power consumption and latency low while delivering a straightforward, plug-and-play 10GbE or Fibre Channel connection for short-range interconnects inside racks and between adjacent racks.

Advantages

This passive DAC SFP+ cable offers reliable 10 Gbps throughput with minimal latency and no requirement for additional optics or transceiver configuration. The factory-terminated ends ensure consistent signal integrity and simplified installation. The copper construction makes this cable a cost-effective solution for data center top-of-rack and middle-of-row connections where distances up to 30 meters are sufficient. Compatibility with SFP+ ports provides broad interoperability across a range of switches, servers and storage devices that accept SFP+ direct-attach copper assemblies.

Suitable for

• Top-of-rack and middle-of-row 10 Gigabit Ethernet links
• Short-distance Fibre Channel connections between storage and host ports
• Direct server-to-switch and switch-to-switch interconnects within or between racks up to 30 m
• Environments prioritizing low latency and predictable performance

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+
• Cable type: Passive direct-attach copper (DAC)
• Data rate: Up to 10 Gbps
• Length: 30 meters
• Typical applications: 10 Gigabit Ethernet, 10G Fibre Channel
• Installation: Plug-and-play, no additional optics required
• Design characteristic: Low power consumption, low latency

How to use

Install the DAC SFP+ cable by inserting each SFP+ module end into the corresponding SFP+ port on your network devices until the latch engages. Confirm that both devices support SFP+ DAC connections and that port settings match the intended 10GbE or Fibre Channel configuration. No separate transceivers or fiber patching are necessary. After physical installation, verify link status through device management interfaces and monitor performance to ensure stable connectivity.

Recommendations

Use the cable in rack or row-level deployments where 30 m distance is adequate, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force during installation, and ensure SFP+ ports are rated for passive DAC assemblies to guarantee compatibility and reliable operation.
