Data Rate: 10Gbp/s, 10GbE SFP+ DAC Copper Cable, support hot-swappable design ensures seamless integration with switches, servers, NICs, and transceivers in data centers or enterprise networks. ^^ Passive SFP+ Twinax Cable eliminates the need for fiber transceivers, reducing deployment costs by 40%+. For DAC (Direct Attach Copper) cables, it is generally recommended not to exceed 5 meters when connecting switch-to-switch, and 3 meters when connecting to network interface cards (NICs). If longer distances are required, Active Optical Cables (AOCs) are a better choice. ^^ Compatible with Intel XDACBL3M, Features EEPROM I2C for automatic device recognition, ensuring plug-and-play functionality with switches, adapters, and storage equipment under Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) standards. ^^ Rigorously tested via TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) and VNA (Vector Network Analyzer) in our Signal Integrity Lab for flawless 10Gbps throughput. Plug and play. ^^ The warranty of the DAC is 3 years, if you encounter compatibility problems or use problems, you can contact us. Custom lengths (1-7m) available upon request.
