Know before you buy
A passive cable does not contain active electronic components to boost the signal. Because it is passive, it consumes no power and is an efficient, cost-effective solution for short-range connections between switches and servers.
This cable is built to MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) standards, meaning it is designed to be compatible with most major networking equipment manufacturers. Each unit is programmed and tested to ensure it functions just like an OEM-branded cable.
Yes, this cable is specifically engineered to support high-speed data transfer rates of 10 Gbit/s. It is ideal for high-performance data center environments or enterprise networking setups.
TAA compliance indicates that the product meets the requirements of the Trade Agreements Act, making it eligible for purchase by U.S. government agencies and contractors. It confirms the product was manufactured or substantially transformed in a designated country.
This cable is 5 meters long, or approximately 16.4 feet. It is well-suited for connecting equipment within the same rack or between adjacent racks in a data center.
