Description Product Overview The HP BladeSystem C-Class 10GbE SFP to SFP 0.5M Direct Attach Copper Cable is designed to deliver ultra-fast and reliable data transfer for HP server and network environments. Perfect for short-distance interconnects, this cable connects two SFP ports directly—offering a cost-effective and low-latency alternative to fiber optic solutions. Ideal for BladeSystem C-Class deployments, this 0.5-meter HP DAC cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) speeds, ensuring stable and efficient connections between servers, switches, and network interface cards (NICs). High-Speed and Low-Latency Connectivity Engineered for high-performance network environments, the HP 10GbE SFP to SFP DAC cable provides 10Gbps full-duplex bandwidth while maintaining minimal signal loss and ultra-low latency. This makes it the ideal solution for data centers, virtualized infrastructures, and enterprise networks that demand consistent, high-speed data flow. The short 0.5-meter length ensures optimal signal integrity and minimal electromagnetic interference (EMI), delivering dependable performance even under continuous heavy workloads. Optimized for HP BladeSystem C-Class Specifically built for HP BladeSystem C-Class environments, this DAC cable ensures seamless compatibility with HP ProLiant servers, Virtual Connect modules, and switch interconnects. It simplifies cabling within enclosures, providing a clean and organized setup that enhances airflow and system reliability. Its plug-and-play functionality allows for quick, tool-free installation, minimizing downtime during configuration or maintenance. Cost-Effective Alternative to Fiber Optics The HP 10GbE DAC cable is a passive copper solution, meaning it requires no external power or transceivers. This significantly reduces equipment costs and power consumption compared to optical fiber cables. Ideal for short-distance connections (up to 7 meters), it’s the go-to option for linking servers and switches within the same rack or neighboring racks in a cost-efficient, energy-saving manner. Superior Build Quality and Reliability Constructed with high-quality copper conductors and robust shielding, the HP SFP to SFP DAC cable is designed for durability and consistent performance in demanding data center environments. Its secure locking SFP connectors ensure a stable connection, even during extended usage or frequent reconfigurations. Each unit is fully tested and verified, guaranteeing optimal transmission performance and compatibility with HP networking equipment.
