Cavo DAC BlueLAN compatibile BlueOptics MCP2104-X001B, SFP+ su SFP+, passivo, 10 Gbit/s, 1 m, nero (MCP2104-X001B-BL)

BlueOptics SFP+ Direct Attach Cable MCP2104-X001B 30m Passive is a fixed, copper-based twinax assembly designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections between compatible SFP+ ports. The 30 metre passive cable provides a direct, low-latency electrical link without optical transceivers, intended for short-range, high-speed interconnects such as within-rack or rack-to-rack connections in data centers and networking closets. The product is compatible with devices that support SFP+ direct attach twinax modules and is delivered as a single continuous cable assembly with integrated SFP+ connectors on both ends.

Advantages

This passive SFP+ direct attach cable offers low latency and stable electrical signalling for 10GbE links while avoiding the need for separate optical modules and transceivers. The integrated connectors provide a reliable point-to-point connection with straightforward plug-and-play installation. Because it is passive, the cable consumes no additional power for signal conversion and typically provides a cost-effective option for short-distance interconnects where optical conversion is unnecessary.

Suitable for

• Within-rack server and switch connections
• Rack-to-rack 10GbE links in data centres
• Top-of-rack switch uplinks to adjacent equipment
• Short-range point-to-point network links requiring low latency

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ electrical twinax connectors at both ends
• Supported data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE)
• Cable type: Passive copper twinax
• Length: 30 metres
• Latency: low, electrical direct attach link
• Use environment: short-reach data centre and networking racks

How to use

Ensure both network devices have compatible SFP+ ports that support passive direct attach twinax cables. With devices powered off or observing hot-plug guidelines from the device manufacturer, insert one SFP+ connector into each SFP+ port until the latch engages. Verify link status on network equipment and configure interfaces according to your network settings. Avoid tight bends and protect the cable from sharp edges and heavy compression to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use this passive direct attach cable in short-reach scenarios up to 30 metres and within recommended ambient temperature ranges for your networking equipment. Confirm compatibility with the host device vendor's supported SFP+ passive twinax interfaces and follow rack cable management best practices to prevent strain on connectors.
