Cabo SFP+ BlueOptics EX-SFP-10GE-DAC-2M 2m macho/macho

The BlueOptics EX-SFP-10GE-DAC-2M is a 2-meter direct attach SFP+ cable with male SFP+ connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet links. Intended for short-reach connections in racks, top-of-rack switches and server interconnects, this SFP+ cable provides a compact, low-latency physical connection that eliminates the need for separate transceivers and fiber patching in many data center and enterprise environments.

Advantages

This direct attach cable offers a fixed 2 m length that simplifies cable management and reduces clutter in densely packed racks. With integrated male SFP+ connectors it provides low power consumption and minimal signal loss compared with optical transceivers plus fiber. The cable’s construction is aimed at reliable, stable links with straightforward plug-and-play installation and long-term mechanical durability suitable for repeated insertions.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches and servers
• Top-of-rack and aggregation switch interconnects in data centers
• High-density rack environments where short copper links are preferred
• Environments requiring low-latency, low-power short-reach connections

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Length: 2 meters
• Cable type: Direct attach copper (DAC)
• Colour: Black
• Connector style: Hot-pluggable metal SFP+ housings

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on your networking devices until the latch engages. Ensure devices are powered off or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by the equipment vendor if connecting live. After physical connection, verify link status and configure network interfaces as required by your switch or server operating system. Use the 2 m length to route the cable cleanly within the rack to avoid sharp bends or excessive strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid bending the cable sharply and keep it away from strong electromagnetic interference sources. Confirm compatibility with your switch or server model and firmware; when possible, check link negotiation settings and vendor documentation for DAC support. Use the cable for short-reach connections up to 2 m to maintain expected throughput and low latency.
