Direct-attach cable for 10 Gbit/s links

This AddOn J9281D-AO cable connects two SFP+ ports with a passive twinax assembly. It is built for short-range, high-speed links between network devices in a rack or cabinet. The 3.3 ft length keeps cable management tidy in dense environments. TAA compliance makes it eligible for federal procurement projects.

Passive twinax with 30 AWG conductors

The cable uses 30 AWG twinaxial wiring and requires no external power or active electronics. It delivers a 10 Gbit/s data rate directly between compatible SFP+ transceivers. Passive designs suit short runs where signal integrity is maintained without equalisation. Lifetime limited warranty covers the assembly.

Fits SFP+ ports on switches, routers and NICs

Plug each end into an SFP+ cage to create a direct 10 Gbit/s link without separate transceivers. The 3.3 ft reach suits adjacent or near-adjacent equipment in the same rack. It frees up transceiver slots and reduces power draw compared to optical modules. Buyers needing longer runs or active equalisation should select a different cable type.
