25G SFP28 Active DAC

The 25G SFP28 Active DAC, 1m (3ft) provides a 25Gbps copper connection between SFP28 to SFP28 ports with a cable length of 1m (3ft). Active electronics inside the connectors extend the usable reach compared with passive copper while keeping power draw low. Direct attach copper keeps both latency and power consumption to a minimum, which makes it the economical choice for 25G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks.

The 25G SFP28 Active DAC, 1m (3ft) connects SFP28 to SFP28 ports at 25Gbps in 25G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks. This unit is available in 9 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 9m (29ft). Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. Our factory programs the compatibility coding for your switch brand before shipment and verifies each unit on real host equipment.

This product is designed and tested to comply with IEEE 802.3, SFP28 MSA, SFF-8402. It plugs into any standards-based SFP28 to SFP28 port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.

The standard part number of this assembly is SFP-25G-AC01. We supply this cable in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 4m (13ft), 5m (16ft), 6m (20ft), 7m (23ft), 8m (26ft) and 9m (29ft). Custom lengths beyond this range can also be produced on request. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.

Standard packing is an anti-static bag plus blister protection, with cartons sized to keep products from moving in transit. We apply our standard labels by default; neutral packing or customer-branded labels, part number stickers and serial barcodes are all available on request.

As a manufacturer serving the fiber optic industry since 1995, we have strong in-house manufacturing and design capability. From early GBIC, Xenpak and X2 modules to today's SFP, SFP+, QSFP, QSFP-DD and OSFP products, we grow together with the industry. OEM and custom-designed transceivers and cables are welcome, and our factory-direct pricing is very competitive compared with online retail stores.

Our warehouse keeps fast-moving transceivers and cables ready for same-week dispatch. Courier, air freight and sea freight options are all available depending on your budget and schedule, and we consolidate multiple items into one shipment whenever it saves you cost.

From incoming component inspection to final burn-in, quality is controlled at each step of production. Finished units are verified on real networking equipment in our compatibility lab, and test records are kept per batch so that any field question can be traced back quickly.
