InfiniBand/glasvezelkabel SFP+ BlueOptics UACC-DAC-SFP10-5M-BL 5 m

The BlueOptics UACC-DAC-SFP10-5M-BL is a 5 m InfiniBand / fibre optic style direct attach cable with SFP+ connectors designed for short-range 10 Gbps links in racks and between adjacent racks. As a passive 10GBase-CR twinax copper type with SFP+ to SFP+ interfaces and 24 AWG conductors, it supports Ethernet, FCoE, Fibre Channel and InfiniBand traffic up to 10 Gbit/s over a 5 meter distance. The cable is MSA-compliant and manufactured to be compatible with hardware platforms that support the original form factor and transmission protocol.

Advantages

This direct attach cable offers a cost-effective low-power connection option for high-speed interconnects. Passive twinax construction keeps power consumption and latency low while providing stable electrical signal transfer for short distances. The cable is built to industry MSA standards and is tested for compatibility with major hardware platforms, offering a practical replacement where SFP+ direct attach connectivity is required.

Key specifications

• Cable type: passive twinax direct attach (DAC), twinax copper
• Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+
• Length: 5 metres
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s
• Conductor size: 24 AWG
• Standards: MSA-compliant, supports 10GBase-CR

How to use

Insert the SFP+ connector at each end into the corresponding SFP+ ports on networking equipment while the devices are powered according to the vendor’s instructions. The cable is intended for short-range electrical signal transmission; ensure both endpoints support passive DAC cables and the 10GBase-CR protocol. Avoid sharp bends and excessive mechanical stress on the cable and secure routing inside racks to prevent strain on connectors.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use this 5 m SFP+ direct attach cable in short, fixed interconnects inside racks or between adjacent racks where 10 Gbit/s performance is required. Confirm compatibility with the target hardware and avoid routing near strong electromagnetic interference sources. Regularly inspect connectors and cable routing for wear to maintain long-term availability.
