10G SFP+ DAC

product description

10G SFP+ DAC is equipped with SFP+ connectors on both ends, supporting a maximum transmission rate of 10Gb/s while also being compatible with 1Gb/s speeds. Unlike optical modules and Active Optical Cables (AOCs), which convert electrical signals to optical signals for transmission, the DAC transmits electrical signals directly through copper conductors.

The 10G SFP+ DAC is commonly utilized for short-distance connections within data centers, specifically for interconnecting servers with switches. It is often employed in 10G Top of Rack (ToR) switch-to-server connections or for stacking 10GbE switches. Its low latency, low power consumption, and cost-effectiveness make it a popular choice for high-speed, high-density data transmission scenarios.

Moreover, the deployment of the 10G SFP+ DAC cable is relatively straightforward, eliminating the need for additional fiber patch panels or optical modules, thus reducing hardware costs and maintenance complexity. Additionally, due to its direct connection method, it minimizes potential performance losses associated with signal conversion.

In conclusion, the 10G SFP+ DAC is an efficient and reliable solution for high-speed, short-distance data transmission in data centers.
