Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum distance this cable can support?
This is a 1-meter direct attach copper cable, designed for short-reach connections typically within a single rack or between adjacent devices.
Is this cable compatible with Cisco equipment?
Yes, this cable is Cisco SFP-H10GB-CU1M compatible, meaning it is designed to work with Cisco switches and routers that support this standard.
Can I use this cable for 1GbE connections?
While the cable supports 10GbE speeds, it is backward compatible and can be used for 1GbE connections if both connected devices are configured for 1GbE.
What is the difference between passive and active DAC cables?
Passive DAC cables like this one do not require external power and are generally used for shorter distances, offering a simpler and more cost-effective solution.
