communication on four links simultaneously. The SFP+ links are designed for data rates
up to 10 Gbps each. Passive breakout cables have no signal amplification built into the
cable assembly. There are two types of DAC cables:
•
Passive DAC cables have no signal amplification built into the cable assembly.
Table 25 on page 66 describes the passive QSFP+ DAC breakout cable specifications.
•
Active DAC cables have signal amplification and equalization built into the cable
assembly. Table 26 on page 67 describes the passive QSFP+ DAC breakout cable
specifications.
