Lenovo 00AY765 Passive Direct Attach Cable
Overview
The Lenovo 00AY765 is a 2-meter passive direct attach cable designed for high-speed data interconnects within server racks and storage arrays. It terminates with SFP+ connectors on both ends, enabling direct, short-reach connections between network switches, servers, and storage devices without requiring transceivers. This cable type is critical for maintaining signal integrity and minimizing latency in demanding data center environments where bandwidth and reliability are paramount. Its passive nature means it draws no power, simplifying deployment and reducing potential points of failure.
Compatibility
This cable is engineered for use with Lenovo systems and any network or storage equipment featuring standard SFP+ ports. It is suitable for connecting devices within the same rack or adjacent racks where a 2-meter reach is sufficient. Specific compatibility extends to Lenovo ThinkSystem servers and storage arrays, as well as network switches requiring SFP+ uplinks or interconnections.
Installation Notes
Ensure the SFP+ ports on both connected devices are clean before insertion. The cable's passive design means no configuration is required; simply plug and play. Verify the 2-meter length is adequate for your planned rack layout to avoid strain on the connectors or ports.
