Elpeus SFP+ cable assemblies provide a cost saving interconnect solution

SFP+ cable (Small Form-factor Pluggable Plus) 10 Gbps Interconnect are designed to meet the requirements of Small Form Factor industry standard SFF- 8431.  And these SFP+ cable interconnects are designed to support the bandwidth transmission requirements and applications as defined by 10 Gbps Gigabit Ethernet and 8G , 10G Fibre Channel over Ethernet ( FCoE) specifications.Currently  Such as SFP+ cable assemblies are available for 30 AWG, 28 AWG, 26 AWG and 24 AWG cables . Standard lengths are from 0.5m, 1m, 1.5m, 2m, 2.5m, 3m, 5m, and 7m.  The Custom lengths are available upon request.Two microseconds may not seem high at first; however, if we imagine a TOR infrastructure where traffic is passing 4 hops to reach the destination, as much as 10.4usec delay is introduced when using 10GBase-T. This is a significant performance penalty compared to using 1.2usec introduced by the SFP+ cable technology.   For each technology, the latency of physical media must be added. In fiber or wire, the speed is roughly 5ns per meter.Elpeus SFP+ cable assemblies provide a theater experience cost saving interconnect solution for 10-Gigabit Ethernet, and 10G Fibre Channel. This SFP+ cable uses a improved 20-position connector to increase performance and minimize signal loss. This product is 10GBASE-CU Direct Attached compliant and fully conforms with the SFP+ MSA specifications. SFP+ copper cables can reach up to 10 meters and like 10GBASE-CX4 are a low power, low cost and low latency solution with the added advantage of a much lower profile connector.
