Cavo DAC BlueOptics DAC10G-3M-ZZ0101F-BL 3 m SFP+ connettore maschio/connettore maschio

The BlueOptics DAC10G-3M-ZZ0101F-BL is a 3-meter Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable with SFP+ male-to-male connectors designed for short-reach, high-speed interconnects. It implements a passive twinax copper topology compliant with SFP+ form factor and is intended for use in rack-to-rack or within-rack connections where 10GBase-CR signaling is required. The cable supports electrical 10 Gigabit links and is suitable for switches, routers, storage systems and other hardware platforms that accept SFP+ passive DAC modules.

Advantages

The BlueOptics DAC10G-3M-ZZ0101F-BL offers a cost-effective and energy-efficient option for short-distance 10 Gbps connections. As a passive twinax cable it consumes negligible power, provides low latency and a simple, robust design with a low failure rate. The cable is manufactured to industry SFP+ physical specifications and is compatible with major hardware platforms that accept SFP+ passive DACs. Its 3 m length and SFP+ male connectors make it suitable for direct links between adjacent racks or within equipment racks.

Suitable for

• Connecting SFP+ ports on switches and routers within the same rack or adjacent racks
• Short-distance 10 Gbps links between servers and storage nodes
• Data center top-of-rack (ToR) and aggregation links where passive DAC is supported

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Length: 3 meters
• Media: passive twinax copper (Direct Attach Copper)
• Supported data rate: up to 10 Gbps (10GBase-CR)
• Wire gauge: 30 AWG (as specified for compatible versions)
• Form factor: SFP+ compliant

How to use

Install the DAC by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on your networking devices until the latch engages. Ensure both devices support passive SFP+ DAC modules and that interfaces are configured for 10 Gbps operation according to device documentation. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; do not exceed the specified bend radius. For reliable operation, verify link status and negotiate speed/duplex settings on each connected device after insertion.

Recommendations

Use this DAC for short, direct interconnects where passive SFP+ twinax is supported by both endpoints. Avoid using the cable for distances beyond 3 meters and check device compatibility lists when in doubt. Handle connectors by the housing, keep connector ends free of contaminants, and avoid excessive force when inserting or removing the cable.
