The JBX06117 7m Juniper Compatible 10GBASE-CR SFP+ Passive Direct Attach Copper Cable represents the optimal solution for high-speed network connectivity in enterprise data centers and telecommunications facilities. As a passive DAC cable, it eliminates the complexity and cost associated with active optical solutions while maintaining exceptional performance standards. Technical Specifications: This cable features 24AWG Twinax copper construction with protective plastic jacketing, providing robust signal transmission over the full 7-meter length. The SFP+ form factor connectors deliver seamless integration with Juniper EX, QFX, and SRX series equipment, supporting multiple compatible part numbers including EX-SFP-10GE-DAC-7M, JNP-SFP-DAC-7M, and QFX-SFP-10GE-DAC-7M. Performance & Compliance: Qualified to IEEE 802.3ae standards with full SFF-8431 and SFF-8472 compliance, this cable guarantees reliable 10GB data rates in demanding network environments. The passive design operates at zero power consumption, reducing operational costs and heat generation. Complete RoHS/ELV certification (EU Directive 2002/95/EC) and TUV/UL safety certifications ensure environmental compliance and safety standards. Applications & Use Cases: Perfect for data center upgrades, server-to-switch interconnects, and storage area network (SAN) deployments. The 7-meter length accommodates typical rack-to-rack distances in modern data center architectures. Passive DAC cables are ideal for cost-conscious deployments where distance requirements don't exceed the 10-meter practical limit. Advantages Over Alternatives: Compared to active optical cables, passive DAC solutions offer lower cost and simpler installation without requiring separate power infrastructure. The 7-meter length provides flexibility beyond shorter 3-meter cables while maintaining signal quality superior to longer passive options. Warranty & Support: Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and available for custom brand programming, this cable delivers enterprise-grade reliability with exceptional value.
