HPE JD095C – 10 Gb SFP+ to SFP+ Direct Attach Cable (0.65 m)
Overview
The HPE JD095C is a passive direct‑attach copper cable (DAC) with SFP+ terminations at both ends, designed for short‑distance high‑speed links (0.65 m) between SFP+ ports. It addresses the need for cost‑effective, low‑latency 10 Gigabit connectivity in racks — e.g., switch‑to‑switch, top‑of‑rack uplink or server NIC to switch. It fits where fibre transceivers may be overkill and where port density, power and cost matter. Ideal for data‑centre or enterprise network racks where the endpoints are in close proximity (say same rack or adjacent racks).
Key Features
-
10 Gb/s rated passive twinax cable — supports 1.25 Gb/s through 10.31 Gb/s data rates.
-
Length of 0.65 m (≈ 2.13 ft) — suited for short‑reach rack/adjacent‑rack connections.
-
SFP+ form‑factor at both ends — plug‑in to standard SFP+ slots on switches, NICs or DAC/CU capable ports.
-
Low power consumption (≈0.5 W typical) and very low latency compared with active optical or fibre links.
