CBO DAC cable DAC10G-5M-BL 5 m SFP+ to SFP+ 10 Gbit/s

CBO DAC cable DAC10G-5M-BL is a 5-meter direct attach copper (DAC) cable with SFP+ to SFP+ connectors that supports 10 Gbit/s links. The passive, fixed-length design provides a low-latency, low-power interconnect for short-reach connections between compatible SFP+ ports. It is intended for use in network racks, data centre top-of-rack switches, routers and server connections where reliable 10 Gbit/s transmission and plug-and-play installation are required.

Advantages

The cable’s passive SFP+ construction eliminates the need for separate transceivers, reducing power consumption and simplifying deployment. Its fixed 5 m length ensures predictable cable management and signal integrity for short-range links. Built for 10 Gbit/s operation, the DAC cable offers low latency and consistent performance for high-throughput applications while maintaining compatibility with standard SFP+ ports.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the DAC cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on network equipment until the latch engages. Confirm link status through device LEDs or management interfaces; no additional configuration or optical transceivers are required. Ensure the 5 m length is appropriate for the physical distance and routing path between devices. For best signal integrity, avoid tight bends and secure the cable to maintain clean cable routing inside racks.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility with the equipment vendor’s SFP+ port policies before deployment, and route the cable to avoid sharp bends and electromagnetic interference sources. Use the fixed-length passive DAC for short-distance, high-density connections where power efficiency and low latency are priorities.
