HPE Networking Instant On 10G SFP+ to SFP+ 3m Direct Attach Copper (DAC) Cable: Cost-Effective, High-Speed Interconnect for Enterprise Networks
The HPE Networking Instant On 10G SFP+ to SFP+ 3m Direct Attach Copper (DAC) Cable (R9D20A) is a high-performance, low-latency cable designed for connecting switches, servers, and storage devices in enterprise networks, data centers, and hybrid cloud environments. With a 3-meter (9.8 feet) length, this SFP+ to SFP+ DAC cable supports ultra-fast 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connectivity, offering seamless data transfers for bandwidth-intensive workloads. The Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable is a passive, plug-and-play solution that enables cost-effective short-range interconnects with low power consumption. It is fully compatible with HPE Instant On switches and other devices with SFP+ ports, ensuring maximum flexibility for enterprise and multi-vendor network environments.

10GbE Connectivity for High-Speed Data Transfers
The HPE 10G SFP+ to SFP+ DAC Cable (R9D20A) delivers 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connectivity for switches, routers, and storage appliances. With 10 Gbps of data throughput, it ensures fast, low-latency transfers for bandwidth-intensive tasks like virtualization, high-definition video streaming, large file transfers, and data replication. Unlike fiber-optic cables, this Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable eliminates the need for separate transceivers, making it a more cost-effective solution for connecting network devices at close range. This ultra-fast connectivity is perfect for data centers, virtualization environments, and large enterprise networks.

3-Meter Length for Flexible Interconnections
The 3-meter (9.8 feet) length of the HPE DAC cable provides flexibility for connecting devices located across the same rack or between adjacent racks. The longer cable length allows IT administrators to connect servers, switches, and routers in a data center or server room with ease. This length is ideal for situations where a standard 1-meter cable is too short but fiber-optic connections are unnecessary, offering a cost-effective, low-power alternative for short-distance, high-speed network links.

Plug-and-Play Design for Seamless Installation
The HPE 10G SFP+ DAC Cable (R9D20A) is designed for plug-and-play deployment, allowing network administrators to quickly install or replace it without downtime. The cable features SFP+ connectors on both ends, making it simple to connect switches, servers, and storage devices. Its hot-swappable design ensures smooth integration and maintenance, allowing IT staff to perform upgrades or replacements while the network remains operational. This flexibility is crucial for ensuring maximum uptime and faster network deployment.

Power-Efficient Passive Design
The Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable is a passive cable, meaning it consumes no additional power, as it draws power directly from the connected devices. This results in reduced operational costs and increased energy efficiency for data centers and network environments. The absence of active electronics reduces heat generation, ensuring the connected network devices remain cooler. This power-efficient design is an eco-friendly choice for companies looking to reduce their carbon footprint and energy consumption.

Multi-Vendor Compatibility and Interoperability
The HPE Networking Instant On 10G SFP+ DAC Cable (R9D20A) is fully compatible with HPE Instant On switches and other devices that support SFP+ ports. This cross-compatibility ensures seamless operation with switches, routers, and storage appliances from HPE and other vendors. The cable adheres to industry standards for SFP+ direct attach cables, providing interoperability with switches and network equipment from multiple manufacturers. This flexibility makes it an essential option for companies with multi-vendor network environments.
