The 487655-B21 is the HPE BladeSystem c-Class 10GbE SFP+ to SFP+ 3m Direct Attach Copper Cable. It is a 3 m copper cable with an SFP+ connector at each end for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links, and the cable is supported with the connecting switch or network adapter at the other end of the link.
In the MSA family the cable is a 10GbE infrastructure option on the HPE MSA 2040, MSA 2050, MSA 2060 and MSA 2062, and the MSA P2000 G3 option list includes it too. On the MSA 2040 the 10GbE iSCSI connection comes from the SAN controller, found in models such as the K2R79A MSA 2040 SAN Dual Controller LFF Storage and the K2R80A MSA 2040 SAN Dual Controller SFF Storage.
The HPE 3PAR StoreServ 8000 supports 487655-B21 as well. On that system the cable needs 3PAR OS 3.3.1 or higher, and DAC cables connect through a switch, as direct host-to-storage connection is not supported with them. The Nimble Storage All Flash Array adapter options pair the 3m 10G SFP+ DAC cable R7D16A with 487655-B21 for the 25GbE 2-port adapter, and the Virtual Connect FlexFabric-20/40 F8 module for c-Class BladeSystem includes the cable among its related copper options.
Other 10GbE cabling and array options can be found in the HPE Misc category and in HPE storage systems.
