Panduit PSF1PZA2MWH Direct Attach Cable
Overview
The Panduit PSF1PZA2MWH is a passive 10 Gigabit Ethernet Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable, 2 meters in length. This cable is designed for short-reach, high-speed interconnects within racks or between adjacent racks in data center and enterprise network environments. It provides a cost-effective, low-power alternative to fiber optic transceivers and cabling for 10GbE connections, directly connecting network devices like switches, servers, and storage arrays.
Compatibility
This cable is compatible with any network equipment featuring SFP+ ports that support 10GBASE-CR standards. It is designed for use with switches, network interface cards (NICs), and storage devices from various manufacturers that utilize the SFP+ form factor for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Specific compatibility is dictated by the SFP+ port standard on the connected equipment, not by a specific vendor lock-in.
Installation Notes
Ensure the SFP+ ports on both connected devices are clean and free of debris before insertion. The cable's connectors are designed for a secure, latching connection. Apply gentle but firm pressure until the connector clicks into place. For removal, disengage the latch mechanism. These passive cables draw minimal power from the host ports, typically under 0.1W per end, and do not require separate power sources. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 70°C (32°F to 158°F).
