SFP+ DAC Twinax Cable 1-Meter(3.3ft), 10G SFP+ to SFP+ Direct Attach Copper Patch Passive Cable for Cisco SFP-H10GB-CU1M, Ubiquiti UniFi UC-DAC-SFP+, TP-Link, Netgear, D-Link, Zyxel,Mikrotik and More

Product Information

Again the cost savings will depend on the data rate being transmitted, but it is not unusual for them to be 2 or 3 times cheaper. Because there are no lasers involved, DAC Cables are much more cost effective and consume significantly less power than AOC Cables or Optical Transceivers (SX, SR, SR4) designed for short reach interconnections. Wide Compatibility】Both ends are compatible with many brands such as: Cisco, Meraki, Ubiquiti, Intel, Mikrotik, Netgear, Zyxel, QNAP NAS, Synology, D-Link, TP-Link, Supermicro and Other Open Switches.

Low power consumption: Since the passive cable does not need power, the power consumption is almost 0. Direct attach cables are factory terminated copper cable assemblies with SFP, QSFP and OSFP single and double density series pluggable modules. These reliable and flexible cables offer ultra-low latency for Servers, Storage and Switches short 10 Gigabit uplinks, and come in 1m and 3m lengths.

The term “DAC Cable” refers to a high-speed copper cable assembly that is welded directly into a form-factor housing without the use of optical lasers. The big benefit of fiber is easy to change out cables or transceivers, less power usage, and much greater distances. They are perfectly suited for connections in racks or to adjacent cabinets between switch, router, and server ports. Compliant with SFF-8436 Standard, every channel supports 25Gb/s rate and 100 Gb/s of bandwidth aggregation and is applied for Ethernet network connection between equipment with QSFP28 ports.

If the transmission distance of DAC cables is not suitable for your application, you may consider using AOC cables.DAC cables are becoming increasingly popular, not just within data centers but within wider areas of the industry, as they offer a very cost effective, efficient and easy way of making these connections. The modules that plug directly into the equipment ports make a physical electrical contact which ensures a solid connection. To further understand their advantages, let’s talk more in detail about what Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cables are and how they are used. However, compared with active optical cables, the connector modules on high-speed cables require no expensive optical lasers and other electronic components.
