I'm finally taking the plunge into 10G SFP+ and have heard about compatibility issues between SFP+ NICs and DAC cables. I'm currently looking to connect NIC to NIC (X710-DA4 on both sides) with no switches.

Any recommendations for cables compatible with the X710-DA4? Are the 10Gtek ones stocked by Amazon any good? Or should I play it safe and buy the overpriced Intel cables?

Thanks in advance!

Have you ever thougt of the SFP+ compatible Intel DAC cables from fs.com? They have the great price, sometimes even lower than Amazon. I bought the fiber optic cables from them before and it is really worthy the money.
