Wiitek 10G SFP+ DAC Twinax Cable Red 9.84 ft

SKU CH-HHV7-PA3QK

Red 9.84 ft passive twinax cable with SFP+ connectors for 10 Gbps links between switches, servers and storage

  • First connectorSFP+
  • Second connectorSFP+
  • Overall length9.84 ft (3 m)
  • Product colorRed
  • 10 Gbps passive copper link for short-range switch-to-switch runs
  • Red 30 AWG jacket simplifies cable identification in dense racks
  • SFP+ MSA and SFF-8432 compliant for broad vendor interoperability
  • 84 ft length fits typical top-of-rack to server connections
  • Operates from 0 to 70 °C without active cooling

Direct-attach 10 GbE cable for short runs

This passive twinax assembly carries 10 Gbps between two SFP+ ports without an external power supply. It suits home-lab builders, small-business IT teams and storage administrators who need a low-latency link between a switch, router, NAS or NIC over a 9.84 ft distance.

Passive copper runs cool and silent

With no active electronics the cable draws negligible power and produces zero acoustic noise. The 30 AWG conductors and PVC jacket operate reliably from 0 to 70 °C (32 to 158 °F) while meeting SFP+ MSA and SFF-8432 signal-integrity requirements.

Length and port match decide fit

The fixed 9.84 ft reach and dual SFP+ ends mean the cable only works when both devices present SFP+ cages within that span. Buyers who need longer runs, fibre media or different connector types must choose another product.

Questions about this item

How do I install the SFP+ connectors on this 9.84 ft cable and what step is often missed?

Insert each SFP+ end straight into the switch or NIC port until the latch clicks; the step people miss is pulling the release tab before removal, which can damage the cage.

What maintenance or replacement will this passive twinax cable need over time?

No active components to wear out; inspect the PVC jacket and SFP+ latches periodically and replace the cable if the jacket cracks or a latch stops locking.

What limit appears first when this 30AWG cable runs at 10 Gbps continuously?

The passive design and 30 AWG conductors limit reach to the specified 9.84 ft; signal integrity degrades beyond that length under sustained 10 Gbps load.
