Tripp Lite SFP+ 10GBASE-CU Passive Twinax Copper Cable, SFP-H10GB-CU50CM Compatible, Black, 20-in. (50.8 cm)

The Tripp Lite N280-20N-BK is a passive SFP+ 10GBASE-CU twinax copper cable that connects switches, servers, or storage devices over a short 20-inch run. Designed for links that stay within the same rack or between adjacent racks, it delivers up to 10 Gbps of throughput without the expense or power draw of fiber optics.

Built on 30 AWG, 100-ohm twinaxial conductors and engineered to meet MSA SFF-8431 specifications, the cable maintains signal integrity while keeping latency low. Die-cast metal shells with convenient pull-tab latches secure the connection and release quickly when it is time to reconfigure your hardware.

Interoperability is straightforward because the cable works with SFP+ ports from leading vendors such as Cisco, Arista, and Juniper. Network administrators can drop it into mixed environments that use Ethernet or Fibre Channel at 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x, or 10 Gb data rates, making it a practical option for data centers, enterprise wiring closets, and test labs.

The robust black PVC jacket stands up to continual moves and re-cabling, and Tripp Lite backs the assembly with a Lifetime Limited Warranty for extra peace of mind.
