The Netgear ProSafe 3m Direct Attach SFP Cable works great for storage, servers, and switches short uplinks. The gigabit Ethernet cable delivers a dependable connection every time across the entire network. The SFP copper cable is a transceiver consisting of a transmitter and a receiver which together share a common circuitry for enhanced connectivity.

The SFP+ modules allow more circuitry to be employed on the host board. SFP transceivers support digital diagnostics monitoring functions which keeps track of optical output power, temperature, optical input power, transceiver supply voltage, and laser-bias current. The gigabit Ethernet cable drives a 10 gigabit Ethernet connection up to a 3-meter distance and is equipped with an SFP+ connector attached on each side.
