SFP+ Direct-Attach Cable CBO WV-CABLE-DA-SFP-5-BL, 5 m, 10 Gbit/s

CBO WV-CABLE-DA-SFP-5-BL is a 5 m SFP+ direct-attach copper cable engineered for short-range, high-bandwidth connections. It supports 10 Gbit/s data rates and is intended for direct point-to-point links between devices with SFP+ ports. The fixed-length cable integrates the SFP+ connectors at each end, offering a compact, low-latency physical connection for switches, routers and servers in rack and data centre environments.

Advantages

This SFP+ direct-attach cable provides a cost-effective alternative to optical transceivers and separate fibre patch cords for short distances. With a 5-metre fixed length and integrated SFP+ terminations, it reduces port space and simplifies cable management while delivering 10 Gbit/s throughput and low electrical latency. The robust copper assembly is suitable for frequent insertion and offers consistent signal performance for uplinks and server connections.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each integrated SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on network devices until the latch engages. Verify link status on both devices and ensure firmware or port configuration supports 10 Gbit/s operation. For best results, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress, and secure it within the rack to prevent accidental disconnection.

Recommendations

Use this cable for connections within a single rack or adjacent racks up to 5 m. Avoid environments with excessive electromagnetic interference and do not exceed the specified bend radius. Confirm device compatibility with SFP+ DAC assemblies before deployment, and keep firmware and port configurations up to date to ensure stable 10 Gbit/s links.
