Passive SFP28 25G DAC cable for short-distance data center connections.
When optimizing rack-to-rack connectivity in high-density data centers, minimizing latency and power draw is critical for operational efficiency. This SFP28 direct attach cable provides a reliable physical layer solution for short-reach 25G Ethernet deployments.
Supporting 25 Gb/s bi-directional data links per IEEE 802.3by, this passive DAC eliminates active component failures while consuming less than 0.1W power, reducing cooling costs significantly. The 3-meter length enables flexible cabling between adjacent cabinets or top-of-rack switches without signal degradation.
Ideal for 25GBASE Ethernet applications requiring high port density, the SFP28-DAC-3m ensures hot-pluggable reliability with enhanced EMI design. It delivers enterprise-grade performance at lower cost compared to optical transceiver modules for intra-rack connections.
Supports up to 25 Gb/s bi-directional data links compliant with IEEE 802.3by standard.
Passive design consumes less than 0.1W, reducing data center energy and cooling costs.
Shielded high-speed differential cables ensure signal integrity in dense environments.
Allows installation and removal without powering down network equipment.
