Overview

The FluxLight 10304-FL is an Extreme 10304 compatible 10G SFP+ passive direct attach copper (DAC) cable, 1m (3.3 ft) long. It joins two SFP+ ports for 10 Gigabit Ethernet between switches, servers and storage in the same or the next rack.

Both ends of the 10304-FL are coded for Extreme, and it works in the Extreme ports that take the 10304, including ERS, SLX and VDX. Platform Support lists every supported model across 7 platform families.

It is built to the SFP+ MSA (SFF-8431) and is passive: the cable has no electronics to boost the signal, which keeps cost and latency low on short links. It uses 30 AWG twinax copper.

FluxLight guarantees it is compatible with Extreme and covers it with a 10-year warranty.

ESD

The cable assembly's electrical pins are rated Class 1 (>2000 V) for electrostatic discharge per MIL-STD-883C Method 3015.7. Normal ESD precautions are still required during handling. The cable is shipped in ESD-protective packaging and should be removed from it and handled only in an ESD-protected environment.
