Add-On ADD-SCISHPD-PDAC5M 5M SFP+ DAC Cable

Overview

The Add-On ADD-SCISHPD-PDAC5M is a 5-meter, TAA-compliant Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable designed for high-speed network interconnections. It specifically bridges compatibility between Cisco SFP+ ports and HP SFP+ ports, enabling direct, short-reach connections without the need for transceivers or patch panels. This cable is ideal for rack-to-rack or switch-to-server connections within a data center or network closet where reliable 10Gbps connectivity is required.

Compatibility

This cable is engineered to be compatible with Cisco SFP+ ports and HP SFP+ ports. It functions as a direct replacement for Cisco SFP-H10GB-CU5M and HP J9284D, ensuring seamless integration into environments utilizing either vendor's networking equipment for 10Gbps Ethernet links. Verify your specific switch or server model supports generic SFP+ DAC cables if not explicitly listed by Cisco or HP.

Installation Notes

The SFP+ connectors simply plug into the corresponding SFP+ ports on your network devices. Ensure the ports are clean and free of debris before insertion. The 5-meter length provides flexibility for connections within a single rack or between adjacent racks. No configuration is typically required; the connection is plug-and-play.
