Cabo direct attach SFP+ CBO MC3309130-003-BL 3 m macho-macho 10 Gbit/s

BlueOptics SFP+ Direct Attach Cable CBO MC3309130-003-BL is a 3-meter twinax copper cable with male-to-male SFP+ connectors designed for short-range 10 Gbit/s links. The cable provides a direct, low-latency connection between switches, servers and network adapters in rack and data center environments. It supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) data rates and is intended for plug-and-play use where fiber transceivers are not required, simplifying cabling and reducing power consumption for short interconnects.

Advantages

The cable offers a fixed-length, pre-terminated solution that eliminates the need for separate transceivers and fiber patching for short distances. Its copper twinax design provides low latency and stable signal integrity at 10 Gbit/s, while the 3 m length suits common rack-to-rack or equipment-to-equipment runs. The male-to-male SFP+ connectors ensure compatibility with standard SFP+ ports on network devices that accept direct-attach copper cables.

Key specifications

How to use

Install by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the network devices until the connector latches. Verify that connected devices recognize the link and negotiate the appropriate 10GbE settings. No additional transceivers or fiber patch cords are required. For best performance, route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain on the connectors and secure any excess length to maintain neat cabling.

Recommendations

Use the cable for direct 10GbE links within the supported short-range distance. Confirm device compatibility with SFP+ direct attach copper cables before deployment. Avoid bending the cable beyond the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius and protect the connectors when the cable is disconnected.
