The SFP-H10GB-CU5M is a Cisco 10GBASE-CU SFP+ cable: a passive Twinax direct-attach cable 5 meters long. It joins two SFP+ ports over copper and fits very short distances, inside a rack or across adjacent racks.
The 5 m cable uses 24 or 26 AWG wire, where the 1 m and 3 m versions use 30 AWG. Maximum power is 0.1 W. The bail latch is gray; the 1 m cable has a beige latch and the 3 m cable an orange one. The commercial temperature range runs from 0 to 70 °C (32 to 158 °F) in operation and from -40 to 85 °C (-40 to 185 °F) in storage.
The cable follows SFP+ MSA SFF-8431 for passive Twinax cables and IEEE 802.3 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Its jacket is UL E116441 compliant and the SFP+ copper cables are RoHS compliant. Version -02 and later of this cable is qualified on all Cisco platforms.
The cable also plugs into the SFP+ side of the CVR-X2-SFP10G OneX converter, which turns a 10 Gigabit Ethernet X2 port into an SFP+ port; the converter takes the 1, 3 and 5 m cables at Version -02. For shorter runs see the SFP-H10GB-CU3M 3 m Twinax cable and the SFP-H10GB-CU1M 1 m Twinax cable; related 10G parts are in Cisco interface cards.
