Review on πŸ”Œ High-Speed 10G SFP+ Twinax Cable (0.5m) for Cisco, Meraki, Ubiquiti, and More by Earl Ton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Does what it says on the tin

I have 1M and 2M cables. I have them connected to Solarflare Nics and working through a Mikrotik switch with 10 gigabit uplinks. The cables were fully compatible with both devices and immediately caught the eye. Running iperf (default settings for UDP) I was able to get over 9.6GB per second out of the link (quite good considering one of the devices is an Intel Pentium 5400, which was probably the CPU limit, not that cable limit) with extremely low jitter (less than 0.003ms when tested typically at 0.000) and less than 0.1ms latency across the switch. It appears to have good build quality for the cables and works as advertised.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
