BlueOptics 470-AAGR Compatible BlueLAN DAC SFP+ 5m Passive Twinax Copper Cable (470-AAGR-BL)

The BlueOptics 470-AAGR compatible BlueLAN DAC SFP+ cable is a high-performance, passive direct attach copper (DAC) solution designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. This 5-meter twinax cable provides a reliable, low-latency link between SFP+ ports in data centers, storage area networks (SAN), and high-performance computing environments. Manufactured to meet BlueOptics 470-AAGR series and BlueLAN system compatibility, it ensures seamless integration with your existing network infrastructure.

Advantages

This DAC cable offers a cost-effective and energy-efficient alternative to optical transceivers and fiber cabling. With power consumption below 0.1W, it reduces overall system power draw while delivering full 10GbE performance. The passive design requires no external power, simplifying deployment and reducing points of failure. Its 24 AWG construction and PVC jacket provide durability and flexibility for easy routing in tight spaces.
