The direct attach copper cable is a fixed copper assembly that connects directly into "transceivers" and can be brought in several lengths. DACC can be either passive or active.
SFP 10G DAC is a hot-swappable active direct attach copper cable assembly (also known as Twinax Cable or DAC) with SFP+ modules at both ends. It is developed specifically as a cost-effective and lower-power alternative to SFP+ optical modules and Active Optical Cables.
The Active DAC design has a signal amplification and a class 10G Clock and Data Recovery(CDR) or Equalizer technology to support longer distances than standard passive SFP+ DAC cable.
The DAC cable fully complies with SFP+ Multi-Source Agreement (MSA) standards SFF-8431, SFF-8432, and SFF-8472. It is designed for short reach links in 10Gbps high-speed interconnect applications such as high-performance computing (HPC), enterprise networking including top-of-rack switching and network storage servers.
