Applications
The 25G SFP28 Active DAC, 1m (3ft) is a 25Gbps active copper cable for SFP28 to SFP28 connections in 25G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks. This unit is produced in 9 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 9m (29ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. Custom labeling, packaging and compatibility coding for specific equipment vendors are available from our factory on request.
Standards and Compatibility
Standards compliance covers IEEE 802.3, SFP28 MSA, SFF-8402. The unit works in any equipment with a standard SFP28 to SFP28 interface; if your network uses a specific vendor's coding, tell us the switch model and we will program and verify it before delivery.
Ordering Information
The factory part number is SFP-25G-AC01. This cable is available in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 4m (13ft), 5m (16ft), 6m (20ft), 7m (23ft), 8m (26ft) and 9m (29ft). Lengths outside the standard range are made to order in our factory. Wire gauge: 30AWG.
Quality and Testing
Every unit we ship is tested in our own test bed on mainstream switch and transport platforms before packing. Our test center has been fully upgraded, which sets us apart from other third party product providers: 10G, 40G, 100G, 200G and 400G transceivers and direct attach cables are verified on the latest top brand equipment, including selected original switches that can hardly be found elsewhere.
Packing Details
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.
Customization Service
Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.
Delivery
Goods are normally sent by courier such as DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS; air and sea freight are also available on request. Commonly used items are kept in stock for immediate shipment, and out-of-stock items are usually delivered within a few working days. We can also ship on your courier account or hand goods to your appointed forwarder.
