DELL 470-AAVJ InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 3.048 m SFP+ Black

The Dell 470-AAVJ SFP+ Direct Attach Twinax cable delivers 10GbE / InfiniBand connectivity with a length of 3.048 m (approximately 9.84 ft). Designed for use in qualified Dell platforms, this black cable features SFP+ connectors on both ends to provide a compact, low-latency link for data centers and high-performance networking environments.

Advantages

This SFP+ twinax cable supports 10GbE speeds over a fixed 3.048 m length, offers low latency and power-efficient direct-attach connectivity, and includes SFP+ terminations compatible with qualified Dell systems. Its fixed-length, factory-terminated design simplifies installation and reduces the need for additional transceivers or patching components.

Suitable for

• Top-of-rack and switch-to-server connections in data centers
• High-performance computing clusters and InfiniBand networks
• Environments requiring short-range 10GbE links (up to 3.048 m)
