Brocade 10G-SFPP-TWX-P-0501 Compatible 10G SFP+ Passive Copper Twinax Cable, 5m (16ft)

Designed for hosts that recognize 10G-SFPP-TWX-P-0501, this SFP+ to SFP+ cable delivers 10G transmission over a fixed 5m (16ft) assembly. Its DAC construction provides a factory-terminated passive copper link without separate optical modules or patch cords.

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Brocade 10G-SFPP-TWX-P-0501
• 10G connectivity at 10Gbps
• Interface configuration: SFP+ to SFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 5m (16ft), 10G-SFPP-TWX-P-0501
• Cable construction: Passive Twinax
• Conductor specification: 24AWG
• Maximum power consumption: ≤0.1W
• Minimum bend radius: 30mm

The rated power consumption is ≤0.1W. Include this load in the host-port power and thermal budget, especially in densely populated switches. Maintain front-panel clearance and do not bundle the cable so tightly that it obstructs airflow around the connectors.

This assembly uses 24AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 30mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.

The intended application is 10G Ethernet. Listed interface and protocol references include 1x InfiniBand QDR, DDR, SDR, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

A passive DAC has no separate optical conversion stage. Its low-power, low-latency operation is useful for short equipment links, but the assembly must remain within the length and signaling mode accepted by both hosts.

The 5m (16ft) length gives 10G-SFPP-TWX-P-0501 more freedom for adjacent-rack and row-end deployments. Longer copper runs need particular attention to routing weight and bend control; the DAC specification and host support must still match the intended link.

10G-SFPP-TWX-P-0501 occupies the middle of this family between 10G-SFPP-TWX-P-0301 at 3m (10ft) and XBR-TWX-0701 at 7m (23ft). It adds 2m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 2m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

For this Brocade application, testing combines digital identification with actual traffic-link verification and electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Both ends are inspected for latch, boot and connector damage. If the project uses a specific hardware revision or a channelized port, send those details so that the intended configuration can be reviewed before shipment.

Quote HT part number 10G-SFPP-TWX-P-0501 with the required quantity. The 5m (16ft) length is fixed for this part number; if a different length is needed, select its corresponding page and OEM reference from the length list above. Standard HT labels and project-specific packaging are available.

Before packing, our team checks the cable jacket, connector boots, latches and identification of each assembly. The cable is then secured in a loose coil and protected against dust and connector impact. Neutral packaging, customer part-number labels and project-specific carton lists can be supplied on request.

Available stock is usually packed and handed to the carrier within one to three working days. Delivery can be arranged by international express, air cargo or sea freight, with tracking details supplied after dispatch. Freight-collect shipments and delivery to a customer warehouse or forwarder can also be coordinated.
