Intellinet SFP+ 10G DAC Cable — 3 m, HPE coded
3 mSFP+ to SFP+10 GbpsHPE coded
The Intellinet 508445 is a 3 m SFP+-to-SFP+ direct attach copper (DAC) cable that links two 10G ports — switch to switch, switch to server network card or switch to storage — without buying two optical transceivers and a fibre patch cord.
This is the HPE-coded version: its module EEPROM identifies it so that HPE/Aruba switches and routers accept it as a supported cable. Intellinet lists it as tested with HPE J9145, J9150, J9151, J9281, J9283 and JG326 switches, and as an equivalent to the HPE J9283B / JD097C (X242) DAC.
Before you order: This cable is coded for HPE/Aruba switches and routers. For Cisco, Dell, Juniper, MikroTik or other ports that expect MSA/universal modules, order Intellinet 508438 (the MSA/universal 3 m version) instead.
What's in the Box
- 1 × Intellinet SFP+ DAC cable, 3 m, with fixed SFP+ plugs on both ends (supplied in a bag)
What It Means in Practice
- 3 m is enough to reach across into an adjacent rack or along a short run of cable management.
- No transceivers to buy: each end is a fixed SFP+ plug, so one cable replaces two short-range optics plus a fibre patch cord — less cost and lower latency on short links.
- It is hot-pluggable: plug it into a powered port and the link comes up at 10G when both ports support that speed.
- Copper twinax is thicker and stiffer than fibre (minimum bend radius 23 mm) — leave a gentle loop at the port instead of folding it sharply against the cage.
What Will Not Work
- RJ45 / 10GBASE-T copper ports — a DAC needs a SFP+ cage at both ends.
- QSFP+/QSFP28 ports — this cable has SFP+ plugs and does not fit 40/100G ports without an adapter.
- Runs longer than 3 m — the length is fixed; for longer distances use SFP+ optics and fibre.
- 1G-only SFP ports — many of them do not link with a 10G DAC; check with us first.
Key Features
Direct attach, no optics
Factory-terminated SFP+ plugs on twinax copper. Nothing to clean, no separate transceivers to match or lose.
HPE coding
Coded for HPE/Aruba switches and routers, so the switch recognises it as a supported module.
Data rate
Up to 10 Gbps
Power and temperature
Passive copper with hot-swappable plugs, operating temperature 0 to 70 °C, storage −40 to 80 °C.

Frequently Asked Questions
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
A DAC is the most economical way to connect 10G equipment that sits close together. The two decisions are length and coding: measure the real cable path (not the straight-line distance) and match the coding to the switch brand. Browse our switches if you are planning the rest of the link.
✓ Buy it if you are connecting two SFP+ ports up to 3 m apart on HPE/Aruba or H3C switches.
✕ Skip it if your ports are RJ45, your run is longer than 3 m, or your switch is not HPE/Aruba/H3C.
→ Also consider Intellinet 508438 — the same 3 m SFP+ DAC with universal MSA coding for non-HPE switches.
Not sure which coding or length you need? Send us the switch and network card models and we will check compatibility before you order.
