Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 10GBASE-CU SFP+ direct-attach cable used for?
A 10GBASE-CU SFP+ DAC provides high-speed connectivity between network switches, servers, and storage devices over short distances (up to 1 meter). It's commonly used in data centers for rack-to-rack and switch-to-server connections where cost-effective, low-latency solutions are required.
What is the difference between passive and active direct-attach cables?
Passive direct-attach cables, like this ENET model, use no active electronics and consume no power, making them ideal for short runs up to 1 meter. Active DACs include signal conditioning electronics and support longer distances but require power and generate heat.
Is this cable compatible with my Aerohive network equipment?
Yes, this ENET 10GBASE-CU SFP+ DAC is designed to be compatible with Aerohive AH-ACC-SFP-10G-DAC-1M specifications. Verify your equipment's SFP+ port compatibility before installation.
Can I use this 1-meter DAC for longer distances?
No, this passive copper cable is optimized for 1-meter maximum reach. For longer distances, consider active direct-attach cables or fiber optic solutions that support extended range while maintaining 10 Gigabit performance.
