Intel XLDACBL5 direct-attach copper (DAC) cables deliver high-speed connectivity for data center and enterprise networking environments. These passive cables support 10 Gbps and 40 Gbps throughput depending on implementation and switch port compatibility. Designed for short-reach connections between servers, switches, and storage arrays, DAC cables eliminate the cost and complexity of SFP+ transceivers and fiber optics while maintaining signal integrity. Compatible with Intel networking equipment and most standards-compliant switches supporting SFP+ and QSFP interfaces, these cables are ideal for rack-scale infrastructure, high-density switching, and direct server-to-switch deployments where minimal latency and reliable performance are required.Tested and guaranteed.
