Dell 470-AAXB passive copper direct attach cable (DAC) connects two QSFP+ ports over 0.5 meters with native 40Gbps throughput. The cable uses unshielded twisted pair copper conductors and requires no active signal conditioning, making it ideal for low-latency, high-density switch-to-switch, switch-to-NIC, or switch-to-server interconnects in data center environments. Fully compatible with Dell PowerEdge servers, PowerSwitch networking gear, and standards-compliant QSFP+ equipment from major vendors.
Low power consumption, no external power required, and compact form factor suit rack-mounted deployments with tight cable management constraints. Typical use cases include direct attachment between top-of-rack and end-of-row switches, server-to-storage connections, and cluster compute fabric deployments requiring 40GbE bandwidth at short distances.
