NETGEAR AXC7615-10000S 15M SFP+ Direct Attach Cable
Overview
The AXC7615-10000S is a 15-meter SFP+ direct attach cable (DAC) designed for point-to-point 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data center and network infrastructure deployments. This length eliminates the need for inline optics or signal regeneration over mid-range runs—a cost and complexity reduction if you're wiring between adjacent racks or switch stacks without dedicated fiber conduit.
Compatibility
SFP+ direct attach cables work with any network switch, NVR, or appliance equipped with an SFP+ (SFP Plus) port rated for 10GbE DAC operation. Confirm your device supports passive or active DAC mode; some enterprise switches list DAC compatibility in the port specifications. The cable carries 10 Gigabit Ethernet signaling and is agnostic to the operating system or VMS software running on connected equipment.
Installation Notes
At 15 meters, this cable approaches the passive DAC distance limit (typically 7–10m for passive DACs; active DACs reach further). Verify with your hardware whether this cable requires passive or active support. No special tools or termination required—connect directly to both SFP+ ports and secure the latches. Route away from high-current power runs and extreme heat sources. Avoid kinking or sharp bends near the connectors.
