Cabo de ligação direta SFP+ CBO MCP2104-X004B 10 Gbit/s, compatível com ligações 24AWG

CBO MCP2104-X004B is an SFP+ Direct Attach Cable (DAC) designed for short-reach, high-speed connections between network devices equipped with SFP+ ports. The cable supports 10Gbps data transfer and is specified for 24AWG wiring, offering a passive copper connection that minimizes latency and power consumption compared with active optical solutions. It is intended for rack-to-rack, switch-to-server and server-to-storage interconnects in data centers and enterprise network environments where cost-effective, reliable 10Gbps links are required.

Advantages

The SFP+ Direct Attach Cable delivers a stable 10Gbps link with low latency and reduced power use due to its passive copper design. Its 24AWG construction ensures mechanical robustness suitable for short-distance cabling inside racks and between adjacent racks. The DAC format simplifies installation by combining transceiver and cable into a single unit, eliminating the need for separate optical transceivers and fiber patch cords. Compatibility with standard SFP+ ports enables plug-and-play operation with many network switches, servers and storage systems.

Suitable for

• Short-reach rack-to-rack data center interconnects
• Switch-to-server connections in enterprise networks
• Server-to-storage links inside server rooms
• High-density networking environments with compact cabling needs

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+ Direct Attach Cable (fixed copper)
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Conductor gauge: 24 AWG
• Cable type: Passive twinax copper
• Use case: Short-reach, within-rack and adjacent-rack connections
• Form factor: SFP+ twinax assembly with integrated transceivers

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the SFP+ port of the two devices to be connected, ensuring proper orientation and a secure latch engagement. No additional configuration or external power is required for the passive DAC; devices should detect the link automatically once both ends are seated. Verify link status LEDs on the network devices and confirm configuration of port settings such as speed and duplex if necessary. For best results, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Use this SFP+ DAC for short-distance interconnects inside racks or between adjacent racks. Avoid installations that require long cable runs or exposure to electromagnetic interference sources. Maintain bend radii and handle the integrated connectors gently to preserve signal integrity and connector life.
