Intel XDACBL3M is a 3-meter (9.84 ft) passive twinaxial direct-attach cable (DAC) terminated with male SFP+ connectors (SFF-8431). Rated for 10Gbps Ethernet connectivity, this cable provides direct attachment between SFP+-equipped switches, servers, and storage arrays without requiring separate optics. The twinaxial construction minimizes signal loss over short-to-medium distances, making it ideal for data center interconnects, high-speed server clustering, and storage area network (SAN) deployments. Compatible with Intel and most third-party equipment supporting passive DAC technology, including Cisco, Dell EMC, HP, and Mellanox platforms. Typical applications include inter-rack connectivity, storage appliance links, and virtualization infrastructure where cost-effective 10GbE connections are needed.Tested and guaranteed.
