The JBX06216 1-meter 10GBASE-CR SFP+ Active Direct Attach Copper Cable represents a professional-grade networking solution designed specifically for Fortinet-compatible infrastructure. This cable bridges the gap between performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness in modern data center and enterprise networking environments. **Technical Specifications:** This active DAC cable features 30AWG twinax copper construction with precision-engineered SFP+ connectors on both ends. It supports the full 10GB Ethernet standard (10GBASE-CR) as defined by IEEE 802.3ae specifications, ensuring compatibility with demanding networking protocols. The cable operates reliably across temperatures from 0°C to 70°C (32°F to 158°F), accommodating both standard and elevated operational environments. **Why Choose Active DAC Technology:** Unlike passive DAC cables limited to shorter distances, the JBX06216's active design includes signal conditioning electronics that maintain data integrity over the full 1-meter length. This proves especially valuable in high-density server environments where cable runs between switches and servers demand consistent, error-free performance. The active circuitry compensates for signal attenuation, delivering cleaner data transmission and reduced packet loss. **Fortinet Compatibility & Integration:** Purpose-built for Fortinet security appliances and FortiSwitch infrastructure, this cable seamlessly integrates into existing Fortinet deployments. It directly replaces OEM part SP-CABLE-ADASFP+1M, simplifying inventory management and reducing compatibility concerns during upgrades or replacements. **Standards & Compliance:** Full compliance with RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC, TUV certification, and UL safety standards ensures this cable meets international environmental and safety requirements. IEEE 802.3ae and SFF-8431/SFF-8472 qualifications guarantee industry-standard performance and interoperability. **Practical Applications:** • Data center server-to-switch connections • High-speed storage area network (SAN) links • Enterprise security appliance interconnects • Low-latency trading and financial networks • Campus backbone connections • Virtualization infrastructure **Warranty & Support:** Backed by a 90-day limited warranty, this cable provides peace of mind for critical network deployments. The 1-meter length offers optimal flexibility without excessive cable slack in equipment racks. **Shipping & Availability:** Qualifies for free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99, with fulfillment from convenient US locations (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC). Stock typically ships within 24-48 hours, ensuring rapid deployment capability.
