Juniper Networks EX-SFP-10GE-DAC-1.5M Compatible 10G SFP+ Passive Copper Twinax Cable, 1.5m (5ft)

For short, high-density connections, this DAC cable combines 10G performance with a fixed 1.5m (5ft) cable run. It corresponds to Juniper Networks EX-SFP-10GE-DAC-1.5M and uses a factory-terminated passive copper link without separate optical modules or patch cords.

Juniper platform documentation distinguishes straight QSFP28 DAC or AOC connections from DACBO and AOCBO breakout operation. On channelized systems, the host port must be configured for the required breakout mode. Match this HT compatible cable to the exact Juniper part number and the intended platform configuration.

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 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.

The additional half metre beyond a one-metre assembly gives EX-SFP-10GE-DAC-1.5M useful routing flexibility when the ports are not directly aligned. It can accommodate a different rack unit or a short service loop, but excess cable should be dressed loosely rather than folded into a tight coil.

EX-SFP-10GE-DAC-1.5M occupies the middle of this family between EX-SFP-10GE-DAC-1M at 1m (3ft) and EX-SFP-10GE-DAC-2M at 2m (7ft). 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.

The HT cable carries the compatibility configuration associated with EX-SFP-10GE-DAC-1.5M, while its mechanical assembly remains the fixed 1.5m (5ft) version described here. Incoming inspection, connector examination and a live link test are completed before packing. Customers with unusually old or new Juniper Networks software can request a pre-order check.

When ordering, specify EX-SFP-10GE-DAC-1.5M, cable length 1.5m (5ft) 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.

Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days. Worldwide courier, air freight and sea freight options are available, and shipments can also be sent on your own courier account or delivered to an appointed forwarder.
