10 Gb SFP+ Direct-Attach Cables

The SFP+ direct-attach cables provide a 10 Gb copper connection between unpopulated SFP+ ports.

The cables are available in lengths from 1 meter to 20 meters. The cables are terminated in connectors that are inserted directly into the SFP+ cages in place of optical SFP+ modules.
