HPE Direct Attach Copper Cables (DAC) - Refurbished, Used, New
HPE direct attach copper (DAC) cables are copper cable assemblies with integrated pluggable ends, used for short links between switches, servers and storage in the same or the next rack. This collection covers HPE and Aruba 10 GbE SFP+ cables, 40 GbE QSFP+ cables, QSFP+ to four SFP+ breakout cables, XFP to SFP+ cables and earlier CX4 cables, plus some fiber patch cables. NetworkTigers sells them refurbished, used and new. Every unit is tested before it ships so it works when it arrives.

Which HPE DAC cable do I need?
Match the port type and speed at both ends first (SFP+ or QSFP+), then the length you need. HPE DAC cables are listed for specific platforms: Aruba switches, HPE FlexFabric and FlexNetwork switches, and HPE servers and blade systems each have their own part numbers, and some devices check cable coding. Check the compatibility notes in the listing or give us your device model. For a breakout cable, check that the 40 GbE port supports breakout mode.
Frequently asked questions
Is a DAC cable the same as an AOC?
No. A DAC uses copper and suits the shortest runs. An active optical cable (AOC) uses fiber with built-in optics, reaches further and is thinner and lighter.
