SFP-H10GB-CU5M — SFP+ 10 Gbps

The SFP-H10GB-CU5M from Cisco is a passive SFP+ copper direct-attach cable delivering 10 Gbps over 5 meters. Compliant with the SFP+ MSA SFF-8431 standard and supplied pre-terminated, this cable stands out for its 5-meter reach — a format well suited to medium-distance inter-rack links in server rooms. It operates across a range of 0 to 70°C with no optical power supply or specific thermal management required.

The SFP-H10GB-CU5M is the preferred 10 GbE connectivity solution for infrastructure teams looking to reduce power consumption and cost compared to an equivalent fiber link. Its passive design makes it particularly suitable for stable, short-range connections between ToR switches and servers in cloud and enterprise datacenter environments.
