IBM 59Y1941 direct attach copper (DAC) SFP+ cable provides high-speed interconnect for enterprise storage and networking deployments. This 3-meter passive copper cable features Molex connectors and supports SFP+ (10 Gbps) signaling, making it suitable for short-reach connections between switches, storage arrays, and servers. Part number 59Y1941 is compatible with IBM and third-party systems supporting SFP+ modules, including Power Systems, System x, and compatible Mellanox/Lenovo infrastructure. DAC cables deliver lower latency and power consumption compared to active optical alternatives, while eliminating the cost of transceiver modules for nearby equipment connections.
Typical applications include high-density SAN fabric links, data center rack-to-rack connectivity, and server cluster interconnects where maximum throughput and minimal latency are priorities. The refurbished unit has been tested and is guaranteed functional; availability and pricing provided upon request.
