In the rapidly evolving digital era, the demand for high-speed data transmission has moved from a luxury to an industrial necessity. The 10G Direct Attach Cable (DAC) has emerged as the backbone of short-range connectivity within data centers and enterprise server rooms. As a cost-effective alternative to optical transceivers and fiber patches, the SFP+ DAC utilizes twinaxial copper cabling to provide a robust, low-latency link between switches, servers, and storage devices.
The global interconnect market is witnessing a CAGR of over 12%, driven by the expansion of cloud services, 5G infrastructure, and the massive data generation from AI applications. 10G DAC cables remain the primary choice for "Top-of-Rack" (ToR) switching architectures due to their reliability and power efficiency.
There is a significant shift towards "Green Data Centers." Since DAC cables consume almost zero power compared to the 1W+ per port required by optical modules, global enterprises are prioritizing DAC solutions to meet sustainability goals and reduce OpEx.
Global procurement teams now focus on "Multi-Vendor Compatibility." Factories that can offer ODM services with EEPROM coding for Cisco, Juniper, Arista, and Huawei simultaneously are dominating the supply chain, ensuring seamless integration across diverse hardware estates.
Established in 2012 in Hong Kong as a hi-tech communication enterprise, Kocent Optec Limited is one of China's leading fiber optic termination product manufacturers and solution providers. We're dedicated to developing and manufacturing fiber optic communication products ranging from passive to active categories for telecommunication networks, enterprise networks, and data centers.

With more than 13 years of experience in manufacturing telecommunication fiber optic products, we strictly follow industry standards. We use mature scientific methods to deliver your products on time and ensure that 100% of products are tested and inspected before shipment. Our facility includes specialized lines for Data Centers (MTP/MPO, AOC, DAC) and FTTA Solutions (Tactical cables, CPRI patch cords).
KCO Fiber provides comprehensive customized solutions for 10G Direct Attach Cables and related components. Our ODM services include:
Our OEM service allows you to leverage your strengths and technology expertise to expand revenue while reducing costs. We ensure that each customized solution meets your needs while maintaining high standards of quality and performance.
China's sophisticated electronics supply chain allows us to source premium raw materials rapidly, reducing lead times for bulk orders of 10G DAC cables compared to Western manufacturers.
Our Shenzhen-based R&D team continuously updates our firmware compatibility database, ensuring that our cables work with the latest switch models and OS updates (like Cisco Nexus or Arista EOS).
We implement rigorous aging tests and signal integrity analysis (Eye Diagram testing) to ensure that our copper cables exceed MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) standards.
As we move towards 400G and 800G, the fundamental principles of high-quality copper interconnects established in 10G DAC technology remain vital. Kocent Optec Limited is committed to remaining at the forefront of this evolution, providing ODM services that bridge the gap between complex engineering and practical, cost-effective networking solutions. Whether you are a telecom operator in Europe, a data center provider in North America, or a system integrator in Southeast Asia, our factory is equipped to be your strategic partner.
