SFP28 to SFP28 DAC 0.5m to 5m passive
SFP28 to SFP28 DAC solution for 25G Ethernet applications
Product information
The SO-SFP28-PCUxM is an active Direct Attach Cable (DAC) solution of Twinax type, i.e. a copper cable similar to coaxial cable, but with two inner conductors instead of one. SO-SFP28-PCUxM is a solution for 25 Gbps connections within racks and across adjacent racks where the interconnected equipment uses SFP28 interfaces. It provides a cost-efficient solution as compared to using optical transceivers and it simplifies the patching since no separate transmit/receive direction has to be taken into account.
A SO-SFP28-PCUxM DAC fits into SFP28 ports and is intended for 25Gbps Ethernet services. The SO-SFP28-PCUxM is provided in lengths from 0.5 to 5 meters (1.6 to 16.4 ft).
The thickness of the cable is defined by the AWG (American Wire Gauge) rating value. As an example, an AWG26 DAC cable is thicker and heavier than the AWG30.
