Cisco SFP-H10GB-CUxM 10GBASE-CU SFP+ Direct Attach Copper Twinax Cable (Passive)
Brand: Cisco · SKU: SFP-H10GB-CUxM · MPN: SFP-H10GB-CUxM · Category: Networking
The Cisco SFP-H10GB-CUxM series comprises passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC) twinax cables designed for high-speed, short-distance interconnections in networking environments. These cables provide a cost-effective, low-latency, and low-power alternative to optical transceivers and fiber optic cabling for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) and Fibre Channel applications. Compliant with SFP+ Multi-Source Agreement (MSA), SFF-8431, SFF-8432, and IEEE 802.3ae standards, these hot-pluggable cables ensure reliable performance across various compatible networking equipment. They are ideal for point-to-point connections within racks and between adjacent racks in data centers, enterprise wiring closets, and high-performance computing (HPC) environments. The passive design means no signal amplification, making them highly energy-efficient. Enhanced EMI design and AC coupled inputs/outputs contribute to robust and error-free data transmission. Available in various lengths, typically from 0.5 meters up t
