  • First connectorSFP+
  • Second connectorSFP+
  • Overall length4.92 ft (1.5 m)
  • Product colorRed
  • 10 Gbps throughput over a 1.5 m passive twinax link
  • Red PVC jacket aids quick cable identification in dense racks
  • SFP+ MSA and SFF-8432 compliance ensures broad switch interoperability
  • 30 AWG conductors keep the assembly lightweight and flexible
  • Operating range of 0 to 70 °C suits standard data-centre environments

1.5 m 10G SFP+ Direct-Attach Cable

This 1.5 metre passive twinax cable carries 10 Gbps between two SFP+ ports. It is built for short-range links inside a rack or between adjacent network devices. The red PVC jacket makes the run easy to identify in dense patch panels.

Suits 10 GbE and 10G Fibre Channel links.

Network engineers connecting switches, routers, NAS boxes or NICs over distances up to 1.5 metres will find this a low-cost, low-latency option. Buyers who need reaches beyond the passive copper limit or who require active optical modules should look at other cable types.

Passive 30 AWG twinax.

The cable uses 30 AWG conductors and operates from 0 to 70 °C (32 to 158 °F). Compliance with SFP+ MSA and SFF-8432 ensures interoperability with Cisco, Ubiquiti, Juniper, Mellanox, MikroTik, Netgear, Supermicro and other standards-based SFP+ equipment.

Questions about this item

What SFP+ ports must my switch and server already have to use this 1.5 m cable?

Both ends need SFP+ cages that accept passive twinax copper at 10 Gbps, compliant with SFP+ MSA and SFF-8432.

Will the red 30 AWG jacket interfere with airflow or stacking next to older 1 m cables in the same rack?

The PVC jacket is standard diameter for 30 AWG twinax, so it routes the same way as other passive DACs and does not block adjacent ports.

How can I confirm the link is running at the rated 10 Gbps after I plug it in?

Check the switch or NIC dashboard for a 10 Gbps link light and zero CRC errors on the SFP+ interface counters.
