Types of Direct-Attach Cables

SFP+ Direct-Attach Passive Cable

QSFP+ Direct-Attach Cables

Direct-attach copper and fiber cables provide connections between unpopulated SFP+ and QSFP+ ports.

This section describes direct-attach cables that are used with Extreme Networks optical modules and includes the following sections:

Regulatory compliance information for all cables is listed in Technical Specifications.

Types of Direct-Attach Cables

Extreme Networks switches support three types of direct-attach cables that connect to SFP+ or QSFP +modules:

•

•

•

SFP+ direct-attach passive cable

QSFP+ direct-attach passive copper cable QSFP+ direct-attach active fiber cable

The type of device and compatible optical module determine the compatible type of direct-attach cable.

Use only Extreme Networks-certified cables, available from Extreme Networks, to make connections to the SFP+ or QSFP+ port on the switch or I/O module.

You can connect or disconnect direct-attach cables without powering down the system.

SFP+ Direct-Attach Passive Cable

The SFP+ direct-attach passive cable provides a 10-Gbps copper connection between unpopulated SFP + ports

The cable is available in lengths from 1 meter to 10 meters and is terminated in connectors that are inserted directly into the SFP+ cages in place of optical SFP+ modules.
