Wiitek SFP+ DAC Twinax Cable 1M White

SKU CH-FWXZ-05GAA

A 1-metre passive SFP+ twinax cable rated for 10 Gbps links between compatible switches, routers and servers

  • Overall length6.56 ft (2 m)
  • 10 Gbps data rate for high-speed links
  • Passive twinax design needs no external power
  • SFP+ MSA and SFF-8432 compliant for broad switch compatibility
  • White PVC jacket, 1 metre length, 30 AWG conductors
  • Operating temperature 0 to 70 °C (32 to 158 °F)

1-metre SFP+ passive twinax cable

This one-metre passive twinax cable connects two SFP+ ports at 10 Gbps. It suits network engineers and server builders who need a short, low-latency link between switches, routers, NICs or storage appliances. The white PVC jacket makes it easy to identify in dense racks. It operates from 0 to 70 °C.

Capacity and headroom

The cable carries 10 Gbps Ethernet or Fibre Channel traffic over its full 1-metre reach using 30 AWG copper conductors. Passive design means no extra power draw, but signal integrity limits the run to this length; longer spans require active or optical alternatives. It is compliant with SFP+ MSA and SFF-8432.

SFP+ to SFP+ connector compatibility

Both ends use standard SFP+ connectors coded for Cisco compatibility and tested with Ubiquiti, Fortinet, MikroTik, Mellanox, Netgear, Supermicro, TP-Link and Cisco Meraki gear. Buyers whose equipment demands a different vendor code or an active cable will need another part.

Questions about this item

Will this 1-meter passive twinax cable link my 10GbE SFP+ switch to an older 1GbE SFP port without extra configuration?

The cable is built for 10Gbps SFP+ to SFP+ links and complies with SFP+ MSA and SFF-8432; it will not negotiate down to 1GbE on a legacy SFP port.

How can I verify the 10Gbps link is active after I plug the white 30AWG cable into both SFP+ ports?

Check the switch or NIC dashboard for a 10Gbps link light and zero CRC errors; the passive twinax design needs no firmware to operate.

Does the box contain only the 1-meter SFP+ to SFP+ twinax cable, or are dust caps and mounting brackets included?

The cable ships in an antistatic bag with no additional accessories; dust caps or brackets must be sourced separately.
