Applications
In 50G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, the 50G SFP56 Active DAC, 1m (3ft) provides a factory terminated 50Gbps link between SFP56 ports. This unit is produced in 5 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 7m (23ft). It installs directly into standard ports with no separate transceivers or patch cords to manage at either end. Compatibility with systems is verified in our own test lab before shipment, so the unit works out of the box as an equivalent of Generic.
Standards and Compatibility
On the compatibility side, this unit is the practical equivalent of the part Generic and works in systems out of the box. Standards compliance covers industry MSA standards.
Ordering Information
The factory part number is SFP-50G-AC01. This cable is available in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft) and 7m (23ft). Lengths outside the standard range are made to order in our factory. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Reliability Control
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.
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.
Logistics
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.
