Ruckus 10G-SFPP-TWX-0301 10 Gb SFP Twinax Direct Attach Cable 3 m

Ruckus 10G-SFPP-TWX-0301 10 Gb SFP Twinax Direct Attach Cable 3 m

Overview

The Ruckus 10G-SFPP-TWX-0301 is a 10 Gb/s SFP+ to SFP+ direct-attach twinaxial copper cable (DAC) designed for short-reach high-speed links inside data-centre racks or between adjacent racks. This 3-metre twinax assembly offers a plug-and-play way to connect 10 GbE ports without using separate transceivers and fiber, reducing component count, power consumption (< 0.5 W), and total cost of ownership.Engineered for reliability in enterprise switching environments, the TWX-0301 cable meets SFP+/SFF-8431/8432 specifications and is compatible with Ruckus  and Ruckus (formerly Ruckus  ) ICX, VDX, BigIron and Force10 switch families for 10GBASE-CU links. ts fixed 3 m length is ideal for connecting uplink ports in stacked switches or aggregation modules with minimal slack and controlled signal path.For network engineers designing 10 Gb/s uplink topologies—whether in access stack to aggregation, server-to-switch, or short rack-row links—the TWX-0301 gives reliable copper connectivity that rivals fiber for latency and maintains cost/complexity efficiency. Because no separate transceivers are required, deployment and spare-parts logistics simplify. The cable supports 10GbE full-rate, is RoHS compliant, and operates within enterprise temperature ranges (0 °C to 70 °C) as per vendor specs

Key Features

• 10 Gb/s full-rate SFP+ to SFP+ twinax connection: Supports 10GBASE-CU links for server racks or switch uplinks.

• 3 metre fixed length: Optimised for rack row or adjacent rack connections, avoiding excess slack.

• Low power (< 0.5 W): Since twinax uses direct copper path, power and heat load are minimal

• Plug-and-play compatibility: Programmed to work with Ruckus /Ruckus ICX, VDX and Force10 platforms, reducing interoperability risk.

• MSA compliant (SFP+/SFF-8431/8432): Ensures reliable insertion into standard SFP+ cages.
