HPE X240 10G SFP+ Copper Cable

The HPE X240 JD096C is a 1.2 metre direct attach copper cable built for 10G SFP+ ports. It suits network engineers and data-centre technicians who need a short, low-latency link between switches, servers or storage arrays without the cost and complexity of optical transceivers.

Passive Copper Thermals and Power

As a passive copper assembly the cable draws no power and generates no heat of its own. It adds no audible noise to the rack and imposes no additional cooling load, making it a thermally neutral choice for dense 10G SFP+ deployments.

Rack Build Integration and SAS Support

The 1.2 metre length keeps cable management tidy inside a single rack or between adjacent cabinets. SFP+ connectors on both ends plug directly into compatible ports, freeing transceiver slots for longer runs while supporting SAS traffic where the connected equipment allows.

Questions about this item

How do I install the SFP+ connectors and what step is often missed?

Insert each SFP+ end into a compatible port until the latch clicks; the step often missed is confirming the latch is fully engaged before routing the 1.2 m cable.

What maintenance or replacement will this direct attach copper cable need later?

The passive copper assembly has no serviceable parts; replace the entire 1.2 m cable if the SFP+ latches wear or the cable sheath is damaged.

What limit appears first under sustained 10 G traffic?

The 1.2 m passive copper reach is the limiting factor; signal integrity is guaranteed only within this length at 10 G speeds.
