Juniper SRX-SFP-10GE-DAC-1M | 10G SFP+ Direct Attach Copper Twinax DAC Cable, 1M

Q: What is the maximum distance supported by the SRX-SFP-10GE-DAC-1M?
A: This is a 1-metre passive Twinax DAC cable. It is designed for very short-distance, rack-to-rack or top-of-rack connections and is not suitable for runs longer than 1 metre. For greater distances, Juniper SFP+ fibre-optic transceivers should be used.

Q: Does this cable require any configuration or software licensing?
A: No. The SRX-SFP-10GE-DAC-1M is a fully passive, plug-and-play cable. It requires no configuration, drivers, or additional licensing. It is supported on Juniper devices running Junos OS 18.3R1 or later.

Q: Which Juniper platforms is this DAC cable compatible with?
A: It is designed specifically for Juniper SRX Series Security Gateways, and is also compatible with Juniper 10G switches, routers, NICs, and network storage systems with SFP+ ports. Always confirm compatibility with your specific platform model and Junos OS version.

Q: Can this cable be used with non-Juniper equipment?
A: The cable uses standard MSA SFF-8432 compliant SFP+ connectors and may physically fit non-Juniper equipment, however Juniper certifies and supports it specifically for use within the Juniper SRX Series ecosystem. Compatibility with third-party devices is not guaranteed.

Q: What protocols does the SRX-SFP-10GE-DAC-1M support?
A: It supports 10GBase-CU Ethernet, 8G Fibre Channel (FC), and 10G Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE), making it versatile for both data networking and storage connectivity use cases.
