SFP28 to SFP28-25G-DAC-5M16FT 25G SFP28 Passive Copper Twinax Cable, 5m (16ft)

This HT cable matches the SFP28 to SFP28-25G-DAC-5M16FT requirement for multi-vendor equipment. The 5m (16ft) assembly supports 25G operation and provides a factory-terminated passive copper link without separate optical modules or patch cords; its complete electrical and mechanical details are listed below.

OEM Part Number: SFP28 to SFP28-25G-DAC-5M16FTHT Part Number: SFP28 to SFP28-25G-DAC-5M16FT

Product Highlights

• HT-manufactured DAC assembly in 5m (16ft)
• 25G connectivity at 25Gbps
• Interface configuration: SFP28 to SFP28
• Fixed length and part number: 5m (16ft), SFP28 to SFP28-25G-DAC-5M16FT
• Conductor specification: 26AWG
• Minimum bend radius: 28mm

This assembly uses 26AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 28mm. 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.

SFP28 to SFP28-25G-DAC-5M16FT is the longest of 7 verified length options in this family. Compared with SFP28 to SFP28-25G-DAC-4M13FT at 4m (13ft), it provides 1m of additional reach for a longer vertical drop, a wider rack or an adjacent-cabinet route. Confirm that the complete path requires this length, because unused slack still needs supported, bend-safe storage.

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 5m (16ft) length gives SFP28 to SFP28-25G-DAC-5M16FT more freedom for adjacent-rack and row-end deployments. Longer copper runs need particular attention to routing weight and bend control; the DAC specification and host support must still match the intended link.

Compatibility is more than matching the SFP28 to SFP28 shape. This assembly is prepared for hosts expecting SFP28 to SFP28-25G-DAC-5M16FT 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.

Use part number SFP28 to SFP28-25G-DAC-5M16FT for the 5m (16ft) assembly. For mixed-length projects, list each required part number and quantity separately so that every cable can be tested and packed according to its intended installation.

HT inspects and tests every completed cable before it enters finished stock. Protective caps or covers are fitted where applicable, followed by anti-static or tray packaging and an outer carton. Custom labels can cross-reference the customer part number, SFP28 to SFP28-25G-DAC-5M16FT and the 5m (16ft) length for easier inventory control.

Available stock is usually packed and handed to the carrier within one to three working days. Delivery can be arranged by international express, air cargo or sea freight, with tracking details supplied after dispatch. Freight-collect shipments and delivery to a customer warehouse or forwarder can also be coordinated.
