🔌 SFP+ vs. DAC Cables: Which one’s for you?

https://fibrecross.com/dac-cable/

SFP+: Transceiver modules for 10G Ethernet. Supports fiber (up to 80km) or copper. Great for flexible, long-distance setups but higher cost and power use.

DAC: Pre-terminated copper cables with SFP+ connectors. Max 7m, super affordable, and low-power. Perfect for short-range data center links.
