Extreme Networks 10GB-C2.5-SFPP Compatible 10G SFP+ Passive Copper Twinax Cable, 2.5m (8ft)

The HT-manufactured 10GB-C2.5-SFPP compatible cable provides 10G connectivity for Extreme Networks equipment. This 2.5m (8ft) version is a factory-terminated passive copper link without separate optical modules or patch cords, with an exact part number and length that can be matched directly to the equipment requirement.

OEM Part Number: 10GB-C2.5-SFPPHT Part Number: 10GB-C2.5-SFPP

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Extreme Networks 10GB-C2.5-SFPP
• 10G connectivity at 10Gbps
• Interface configuration: SFP+ to SFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 2.5m (8ft), 10GB-C2.5-SFPP
• Cable construction: Passive Twinax
• Conductor specification: 30AWG
• Maximum power consumption: ≤0.1W
• Minimum bend radius: 23mm

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.

The 2.5m (8ft) version is useful when a two-metre run would leave insufficient working slack. Before installation, check the complete horizontal and vertical path so that 10GB-C2.5-SFPP reaches both ports without tension at either connector.

10GB-C2.5-SFPP occupies the middle of this family between 10GB-C02-SFPP at 2m (7ft) and 10GB-C03-SFPP at 3m (10ft). It adds 0.5m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 0.5m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

This assembly uses 30AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 23mm. 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.

Our compatibility setup for Extreme Networks 10GB-C2.5-SFPP is checked together with the physical 2.5m (8ft) assembly. Factory verification covers connector condition, host identification, error-free link establishment and electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Providing the exact host model and firmware release helps us identify platform-specific requirements before production.

When ordering, specify 10GB-C2.5-SFPP, cable length 2.5m (8ft) and the host platform. This allows our team to verify both the physical assembly and the compatibility requirement before production. Neutral labeling and customer packing lists can be arranged for volume orders.

Production inspection covers both physical condition and a live link check. Connector ends receive individual protection, and the completed assembly is packed without tight ties or sharp bends. For multi-length projects, cartons can be separated and labelled by OEM part number to simplify installation on site.

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.
