CBO DAC SFP+ Direct Attach Copper Cable BN-SP-CBL-1M-IB, 1 m, SFP+ passive

CBO BN-SP-CBL-1M-IB is a 1 m Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable with SFP+ passive connectors, designed for short-reach 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. The cable integrates SFP+ form-factor transceivers into a single copper assembly, allowing direct plug-in between compatible SFP+ ports on switches, servers and network adapters without separate optical transceivers. Its passive design reduces power consumption and latency while providing a reliable, cost-effective physical link for rack-to-rack and chassis-to-chassis deployments in data centers and enterprise networks.

Advantages

The SFP+ passive DAC cable delivers a compact, all-in-one interconnect that eliminates the need for separate modules and patch cords, simplifying installation and reducing component count. Due to its copper construction and passive electrical interface, the cable offers low insertion loss and minimal power draw compared with active or optical alternatives. The short fixed length streamlines cable management in dense rack environments and helps maintain predictable signal integrity for 10GbE links.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each SFP+ plug into the corresponding SFP+ port on devices that support SFP+ DAC connections, ensuring correct orientation and a secure latch. No additional transceivers or fiber patch cables are required. After installation, verify link status on both devices and configure network settings as needed. For best results, avoid sharp bends and excessive strain on the cable and confirm device compatibility with passive SFP+ DACs.

Recommendations

Use this 1 m passive SFP+ DAC cable for short, fixed-length 10GbE links where low latency and low power are priorities. Keep the cable routing tidy in high-density racks, avoid tight bends below the manufacturer’s recommended bend radius, and confirm that connected equipment supports passive SFP+ copper modules to ensure stable operation.
