BlueLAN Compatible Mellanox MCP21J1-X001A 10GBASE-CR Passive SFP+ to SFP+ Direct Attach Cable, 1M, AWG30

The BlueLAN MCP21J1-X001A-BL is a high-performance passive direct attach cable (DAC) designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks. It provides a cost-effective and low-power solution for short-range connections between SFP+ ports in data centers, server rooms, and enterprise networks. This cable is fully compatible with Mellanox MCP21J1-X001A and other standard SFP+ interfaces.

Advantages

Passive twinax copper design ensures ultra-low latency and zero power consumption (<0.1W), making it ideal for high-density environments. The 1-meter length with AWG30 gauge offers flexibility for rack-level connections while maintaining signal integrity. Hot-swappable SFP+ connectors allow for easy installation and replacement without network downtime.
