Amg Systems SFP-DAC-10G-1 Sfp+ Dac Cable 10GB 1M

Product Description

The AMG SYSTEMS SFP-DAC-10G-1 is a passive direct attach copper (DAC) cable with SFP+ connectors on each end, designed for short-reach 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections between network switches, servers, and storage devices. The cable measures 1 meter in length and supports data rates up to 10GB, making it a cost-effective alternative to active optical transceivers for rack-level interconnects. Licensed network technicians and IT infrastructure professionals install this cable type in data center and enterprise network environments where low latency and low power consumption are priorities.

This DAC cable is suited for rack-to-rack and top-of-rack switching applications in data centers, server rooms, and structured cabling installations. It connects equipment with SFP+ ports operating at 1GB or 10GB link speeds. The 1-meter length is ideal for short intra-rack runs where patch panels, switches, and servers are housed in the same or adjacent rack units. This product ships as a single cable unit.

Key Features

• Supports 1GB and 10GB data rates over a single passive copper DAC assembly
• 1-meter cable length suited for intra-rack and adjacent-rack deployments
• SFP+ form factor connectors on both ends for direct port insertion
• Passive design eliminates active components, reducing power draw and heat output
• Low-latency interconnect alternative to fiber optic transceivers and patch cables

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-attach replacement cable for network equipment with SFP+ ports supporting 1GB or 10GB Ethernet. Verify host device compatibility with SFP+ passive DAC cables before installation, as compatibility varies by switch and server vendor firmware policy.

Installation Notes

SFP+ DAC cables are installed by qualified network technicians familiar with structured cabling and data center practices. Power cycling the connected ports after insertion may be required for the host device to recognize the cable. Always handle SFP+ connectors by the body and use the pull tab for removal — do not tug the cable jacket directly. Ensure SFP+ slots are free of dust caps and debris before seating the connector.
