Cisco SFP-H10GB-ACU10M Full English Product Description

Cisco SFP-H10GB-ACU10M is an original Cisco active 10GBASE-CU SFP+ to SFP+ direct attach twinax copper cable (Active DAC) with a length of 10 meters. It features factory pre-terminated SFP+ connectors with built-in signal conditioning circuits at both ends. Compliant with SFP+ MSA SFF-8461 and IEEE 802.3ae standards. Unlike passive DAC cables limited to a maximum transmission distance of 5 meters, this active twinax cable compensates for copper signal attenuation, enabling reliable long-distance 10-Gigabit point-to-point connections. It acts as a cost-effective, low-latency alternative to optical transceivers and fiber patch cords for extended intra-rack and cross-rack networking in data centers.

Stable 10Gbps Full-Duplex Transmission

Supports 10GBASE-CU 10 Gigabit Ethernet and compatible Fibre Channel protocols, delivering consistent 10 Gbps bidirectional data throughput for enterprise and data center network environments.
Active Signal Retiming & Amplification Design

Integrated signal booster circuitry offsets signal loss over long copper cable runs, supporting stable 10G transmission up to 10 meters, exceeding the distance limit of passive twinax DAC cables.
Low-Latency Electrical Interconnection

Direct copper transmission maintains minimal signal latency, ideal for virtualization clusters, leaf-spine data center fabrics and low-latency storage networking workloads.
Hot-Swappable SFP+ Interface

Standard hot-pluggable SFP+ form factor allows technicians to install or remove the cable without powering down connected switches, routers and servers.
Fully Shielded Twinax Cable Construction

28 AWG shielded twinaxial cable suppresses EMI and RFI electromagnetic interference, guaranteeing reliable signal integrity within densely cabled data center facilities.
Standard Bail Pull Latch

Equipped with pull-tab bail latches for convenient insertion and extraction from SFP+ ports on network hardware.
