Dell 470-ACEX Compatible 25G SFP28 Passive Copper Twinax Cable, 1.5m (5ft)

With a fixed 1.5m (5ft) cable and SFP28 to SFP28, the 470-ACEX compatible assembly simplifies 25G deployment. It is manufactured and tested by HT for Dell equipment.

OEM Part Number: 470-ACEXHT Part Number: 470-ACEX

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Dell 470-ACEX
• 25G connectivity at 25Gbps
• Interface configuration: SFP28 to SFP28
• Fixed length and part number: 1.5m (5ft), 470-ACEX
• Conductor specification: 30AWG
• Minimum bend radius: 21.25mm

This assembly uses 30AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 21.25mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.

The intended application is 25G Ethernet, Data Center, 5G Wireless. Listed interface and protocol references include IEEE 802.3, SFP28 MSA, SFF-8402, Infiniband, EIA 364-1000. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

A passive DAC has no separate optical conversion stage. Its low-power, low-latency operation is useful for short equipment links, but the assembly must remain within the length and signaling mode accepted by both hosts.

The additional half metre beyond a one-metre assembly gives 470-ACEX useful routing flexibility when the ports are not directly aligned. It can accommodate a different rack unit or a short service loop, but excess cable should be dressed loosely rather than folded into a tight coil.

470-ACEX occupies the middle of this family between 470-ACEX at 1m (3ft) and 470-ACFB at 2m (7ft). It adds 0.5m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 0.5m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

The assembly is configured for equipment that recognizes 470-ACEX. Before shipment, we inspect both connectors and verify identification, link establishment and electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Host hardware and firmware revisions can affect third-party cable acceptance, so customers can provide the equipment model and software release for a pre-order compatibility review.

This product is ordered as 470-ACEX in 1.5m (5ft). Include the equipment model and software release if you would like a pre-order compatibility review. Other lengths use different part numbers and should not be substituted into the same order line.

Every 470-ACEX compatible assembly undergoes link testing, compatibility verification and visual inspection. The 1.5m (5ft) cable is coiled without exceeding its minimum bend radius, fitted with connector protection and packed in an anti-static bag or protective tray before cartoning. Project labels and packing lists are available for volume orders.

Lead time for ordinary configurations is normally one to three working days, while production quantities are confirmed with the order. We can arrange express courier or economy freight according to destination and carton volume, or hand the shipment to your appointed logistics provider.
