  • What is the difference between DAC and AOC cables?
    DAC cables use copper twinax conductors, while AOC cables use fiber optics. DAC is more cost-effective for short distances, while AOC supports longer reach and better EMI resistance.
  • Why choose 24AWG instead of 30AWG DAC cable?
    24AWG provides lower signal attenuation and better performance over longer DAC distances compared to thinner 30AWG cables.
  • Is this DAC cable compatible with all SFP+ switches?
    It is compatible with most standard SFP+ ports, but some vendors may require specific EEPROM coding for full compatibility.
  • Does this cable require external power?
    No, it is a passive DAC cable powered directly through the SFP+ interface.
  • What is the maximum effective distance for passive DAC?
    This 24AWG version supports up to 10 meters under optimal conditions, depending on the equipment and environment.
