Citrix ADC MPX
data‑rate agnostic. Supporting speeds more than 10 Gbps, it is a cost‑eective alternative to optical
links (SFP+ transceivers and fiber optic cables.)
The transceiver with DAC is hot‑swappable. You can insert and remove the transceiver with the at‑
tached cable without shutting down the appliance. The Citrix ADC appliance supports only a passive
DAC.
Important:
• DAC is supported only on 10G ports. Do not insert a DAC into a 1G port.
• Do not attempt to unplug the integrated copper cable from the transceiver and insert a fiber
cable into the transceiver.
