Arista Networks CAB-S-S-25G-1M Compatible 25G SFP28 Passive Copper Twinax Cable, 1m (3ft)

For short, high-density connections, this DAC cable combines 25G performance with a fixed 1m (3ft) cable run. It corresponds to Arista Networks CAB-S-S-25G-1M and uses a factory-terminated passive copper link without separate optical modules or patch cords.

OEM Part Number: CAB-S-S-25G-1MHT Part Number: CAB-S-S-25G-1M

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Arista Networks CAB-S-S-25G-1M
• 25G connectivity at 25Gbps
• Interface configuration: SFP28 to SFP28
• Fixed length and part number: 1m (3ft), CAB-S-S-25G-1M
• 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.

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.

At 1m (3ft), CAB-S-S-25G-1M is a practical choice for direct connections within one rack. Route the cable along the intended management path rather than pulling it diagonally across adjacent connectors, and leave enough clearance for insertion, removal and front-panel airflow.

CAB-S-S-25G-1M is the shortest of 7 verified length options in this family. It is the preferred choice when the port positions are close and cable slack must be kept to a minimum. The next option is CAB-S-S-25G-1.5M at 1.5m (5ft), adding 0.5m for a less direct routing path; selecting it unnecessarily would leave more cable to dress.

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.

For this Arista Networks application, testing combines digital identification with actual traffic-link verification and electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Both ends are inspected for latch, boot and connector damage. If the project uses a specific hardware revision or a channelized port, send those details so that the intended configuration can be reviewed before shipment.

When ordering, specify CAB-S-S-25G-1M, cable length 1m (3ft) and the host platform. This allows our team to verify both the physical assembly and the compatibility requirement before production. Neutral labeling and customer packing lists can be arranged for volume orders.

Before packing, our team checks the cable jacket, connector boots, latches and identification of each assembly. The cable is then secured in a loose coil and protected against dust and connector impact. Neutral packaging, customer part-number labels and project-specific carton lists can be supplied on request.

Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days. Worldwide courier, air freight and sea freight options are available, and shipments can also be sent on your own courier account or delivered to an appointed forwarder.
