Description

StarTech SFPCMM3M 3M 10Gbps Passive Direct Attach Cable

Overview

The StarTech SFPCMM3M is a 3-meter passive direct attach cable designed for high-speed 10Gbps network connections between SFP+ enabled devices. This cable is ideal for short-reach applications within racks or between adjacent racks, such as connecting network switches, servers, or storage devices. Its passive design means it requires no external power, simplifying deployment and reducing potential points of failure. The 100 Ohm impedance and 30 AWG wire gauge ensure signal integrity for reliable data transmission.

Compatibility

This cable is 100% Cisco SFP-H10GB-CU3M compatible, ensuring seamless integration with Cisco networking equipment. It is designed to work with any SFP+ port supporting 10Gbps Ethernet, making it suitable for a wide range of enterprise networking hardware that utilizes the SFP+ form factor.

Installation Notes

The cable features a PVC jacket for flexibility and durability. It operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C, suitable for most standard IT environments. The low power consumption (< 0.5 W) means it will not add a significant load to your network devices.
