Know before you buy
This cable is specifically programmed and tested for compatibility with Juniper Networks hardware. While it may physically fit other SFP+ ports, we recommend using it only with supported Juniper devices to ensure proper recognition and signal integrity.
No, this is a passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable, which is strictly limited to a 3-meter reach. For connections exceeding this distance, you will need to switch to active optical cables or standard fiber optic transceivers.
No, this is a plug-and-play cable. Once you insert the SFP+ connectors into your compatible ports, the connection should be established automatically without the need for additional drivers or software configuration.
TAA compliance indicates that this cable meets the requirements of the Trade Agreements Act, meaning it is manufactured or substantially transformed in a designated country. This is a common requirement for government and certain enterprise-level procurement contracts.
Copper DAC cables like this one are generally more cost-effective and consume less power than fiber optic transceivers for short-range, in-rack connections. However, they are heavier and limited to much shorter distances compared to fiber.
