Cisco 10G Base CU SFP+ 1.5 m network cable

Cisco 10GBASE-CU SFP+ Direct Attach Cable - 1.5m

Achieve robust, high-performance 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity within your data center or server closet with the genuine Cisco 10GBASE-CU SFP+ Direct Attach Cable. This 1.5-meter Twinax cable is an essential component for modern, high-speed networks, offering a reliable and highly cost-effective solution for short-distance interconnects. Engineered to the highest standards by Cisco, this cable ensures seamless compatibility and optimal performance when connecting Cisco switches, routers, servers, and network interface cards equipped with SFP+ ports.

Key Benefits for Your Network Infrastructure:

The Cisco SFP+ copper Twinax cable is designed to provide significant advantages over other connectivity options. Its primary benefit is its exceptional cost-effectiveness, offering a lower-priced alternative to using two separate optical transceivers and a patch cable for short-reach applications. This direct-attach design also leads to lower power consumption, helping to reduce operational costs and the overall thermal load in your server racks. Installation is simplified to a plug-and-play experience; the pre-terminated SFP+ connectors on both ends eliminate the complexity and potential failure points associated with multi-part optical solutions, ensuring a stable and dependable link with minimal setup time.

Main
This high-speed network cable is a passive copper assembly that connects directly into SFP+ ports, functioning as a unified, high-density 10G solution. The integrated design guarantees signal integrity and delivers consistent, low-latency performance essential for demanding applications. Its hot-swappable nature allows for installation and replacement without powering down your network equipment, maximizing uptime and simplifying maintenance. The 1.5-meter length is ideal for intra-rack and adjacent-rack connections, such as top-of-rack switch-to-server links or for stacking compatible network switches.

While many high-speed networks rely on optical fiber technology for long-distance runs, the Cisco 10GBASE-CU SFP+ cable provides a superior, low-latency, and highly economical solution for short-reach interconnects up to 7 meters. It is the preferred choice for connecting equipment within the same rack, eliminating the higher cost and power budget of optical transceivers where they are not necessary. This makes it a smart, efficient choice for building out scalable and high-density 10GbE environments.
