D-link Systems,inc. DEM-CB300S 10G Direct Attach Cable

Product Description

The D-LINK SYSTEMS,INC. DEM-CB300S is a 10G Direct Attach Cable (DAC) measuring 3 meters (approximately 118 inches) in length. It provides a high-speed, passive copper interconnect solution for 10 Gigabit Ethernet applications. This cable is designed to connect compatible SFP+ ports directly between switches, servers, and other enterprise networking equipment, eliminating the need for separate transceivers. Network engineers and data center technicians typically handle installation in structured cabling and enterprise switching environments.

The DEM-CB300S is suited for short-range, high-density data center and enterprise network deployments where low latency and cost-effective 10G connectivity are required. It is commonly used to link top-of-rack switches to servers or to interconnect adjacent networking devices within the same rack or across short distances in a data center environment.

Key Features

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet direct attach copper cable for low-latency interconnects
• 3-meter length suits intra-rack and short inter-rack runs
• Passive copper construction requires no additional power or optics
• SFP+ form factor interface for compatibility with standard enterprise switching ports
• Single unit packaging for straightforward deployment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style direct attach cable for use with SFP+ 10G port-equipped enterprise switches, servers, and network devices supporting standard DAC specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified network technician or data center engineer. Power down or place the relevant port in a disabled state before seating or removing the SFP+ connector to avoid potential interface errors. Ensure the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius and is properly managed to prevent physical strain on the connectors. Follow applicable data center structured cabling standards and equipment manufacturer guidelines during installation.
