Netgear AXC761-10000S Sfp+ Direct Attach Cable 1m

Product Description

The NETGEAR AXC761-10000S is a 1-meter SFP+ Direct Attach Cable (DAC) designed for high-speed network connections between SFP+-compatible switches, routers, and server network interface cards. DAC cables provide a passive copper interconnect solution that eliminates the need for separate optical transceivers, making them a practical choice for short-reach 10 Gigabit Ethernet links within a rack or between adjacent racks. Network technicians and data center installers use this cable type to achieve reliable, low-latency 10GbE connectivity at a lower cost than active optical alternatives.

This cable is suited for use in structured cabling environments, top-of-rack switching deployments, and server-to-switch uplinks in both enterprise and small business data center settings. The 1-meter length targets same-rack or adjacent-rack installations where cable management and minimal slack are priorities. It is compatible with any SFP+ port that conforms to the SFP+ MSA standard, and is specifically designed for use with NETGEAR switches and network devices supporting 10GbE SFP+ interfaces.

Key Features

• 1-meter passive copper direct attach construction for short-reach 10GbE links
• SFP+ form factor for plug-and-play installation in standard SFP+ ports
• Eliminates the need for separate optical transceivers, reducing component count
• Low-latency passive design with no active components to manage or configure
• Sold as a single unit (EA), quantity of 1 per package

Compatibility

Designed for use with NETGEAR networking equipment featuring SFP+ interfaces supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Compatible with any SFP+ port conforming to the SFP+ MSA standard in typical data center and enterprise networking deployments.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified network technicians or data center cabling professionals. Power down or administratively disable the SFP+ port before inserting or removing the cable to prevent interface errors. Ensure the locking latch is fully seated on both ends before bringing the link up. Follow local data center cabling standards and manufacturer guidelines for bend radius and cable management to avoid signal degradation.
