SFP-DD to SFP-DD-100G-DAC-0.5M2FT 100G SFP-DD 2 x 50G PAM4 Passive Copper Twinax Cable, 0.5m (2ft)

Designed for hosts that recognize SFP-DD to SFP-DD-100G-DAC-0.5M2FT, this SFP-DD to SFP-DD cable delivers 100G transmission over a fixed 0.5m (2ft) assembly. Its DAC construction provides a factory-terminated passive copper link without separate optical modules or patch cords.

The listed modulation format is 2x 50G-PAM4. Both host interfaces must be configured for the same aggregate rate and lane arrangement. A connector that fits mechanically does not by itself guarantee that the remote port supports this encoding or breakout 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 0.5m (2ft) length is suited to closely aligned ports where excessive slack would obstruct airflow or complicate dressing. Measure the actual port-to-port path before choosing SFP-DD to SFP-DD-100G-DAC-0.5M2FT; even a short assembly must retain the specified bend radius and should never be pulled tight behind the equipment.

SFP-DD to SFP-DD-100G-DAC-0.5M2FT is the shortest of 4 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 SFP-DD to SFP-DD-100G-DAC-1M3FT at 1m (3ft), adding 0.5m for a less direct routing path; selecting it unnecessarily would leave more cable to dress.

The rated power consumption is 0.1W. Include this load in the host-port power and thermal budget, especially in densely populated switches. Maintain front-panel clearance and do not bundle the cable so tightly that it obstructs airflow around the connectors.

This assembly uses 30AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 23.6mm. 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 100G Ethernet, 128G Fibre Channel. Listed interface and protocol references include SFP-DD MSA, SFP-DD MIS, IEEE 802.3cd. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

Compatibility is more than matching the SFP-DD to SFP-DD shape. This assembly is prepared for hosts expecting SFP-DD to SFP-DD-100G-DAC-0.5M2FT and is checked for identification, stable link behavior and electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. We recommend confirming the equipment model and software release for critical deployments or mixed-vendor installations.

Quote HT part number SFP-DD to SFP-DD-100G-DAC-0.5M2FT with the required quantity. The 0.5m (2ft) length is fixed for this part number; if a different length is needed, select its corresponding page and OEM reference from the length list above. Standard HT labels and project-specific packaging are available.

Every SFP-DD to SFP-DD-100G-DAC-0.5M2FT compatible assembly undergoes link testing, compatibility verification and visual inspection. The 0.5m (2ft) 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.

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.
