Description

Active SFP+ direct-attach copper cable that extends reliable 10GbE connectivity to 5 meters with integrated signal conditioning. Ideal for links that exceed passive DAC limits while keeping optical complexity and cost out of the rack. Hot-pluggable SFP+ ends fit standard SFP+ cages on supported switches, servers, and storage.

Features

- Extended reach versus passive DAC
- Low latency and simplified deployment
- No separate optics required
- Excellent signal integrity with integrated EQ
- Cost-effective in-rack/inter-rack 10G connectivity

FAQs

Q: When should I choose active DAC over passive?
A: Use active DAC for longer runs or when extra signal margin is needed due to platform or cabling constraints, typically beyond about 3–5 meters depending on gauge and device PHY.

Q: Is vendor-specific coding required?
A: Many platforms require qualified coding for DAC. Check your hardware’s supported part list to ensure interoperability.

Q: Can this replace optical transceivers for 5 m links?
A: Yes. Active DAC is a cost-effective, low-latency alternative to short-reach optical modules at this distance.

Q: Do I need special drivers or licenses?
A: No additional licenses or drivers are typically required; standard 10GbE SFP+ ports that support active DAC will link automatically.
