25G SFP28 Active DAC

The 25G SFP28 Active DAC, 1m (3ft) is a active twinax direct attach copper cable with SFP28 to SFP28, supporting 25Gbps links over a length of 1m (3ft). Active electronics inside the connectors extend the usable reach compared with passive copper while keeping power draw low. It is a cost effective, low latency interconnect for 25G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks, and complies with IEEE 802.3, SFP28 MSA, SFF-8402.

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 supplied 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. Custom labeling, packaging and compatibility coding for specific equipment vendors are available from our factory on request.

Compliance: IEEE 802.3, SFP28 MSA, SFF-8402. Every unit's EEPROM coding and link behavior are verified on real host equipment in our lab, so what arrives at your site is ready to use.

This model carries part number SFP-25G-AC01. You can order this assembly in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 4m (13ft), 5m (16ft), 6m (20ft), 7m (23ft), 8m (26ft) and 9m (29ft). Non-standard lengths can be produced on request. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Volume pricing is available for project quantities.

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.

We ship to customers around the world every week. Express couriers handle most orders door to door in a few days; larger consignments go by air or sea to keep freight costs down. Tracking information is provided for every shipment, and we are flexible on shipping accounts and forwarders.

We do not ship untested stock. Each transceiver and cable is powered up in our test racks, checked for link stability, transmit power, receiver sensitivity and diagnostic readouts, and only then packed for delivery. This factory-level testing is one reason network integrators keep reordering from us year after year.

Default packaging is simple and protective: sealed bag, blister tray, export carton. For OEM customers we also offer white-label packing, custom printed boxes and per-unit labeling with your own part numbers, so the goods can go straight into your sales channel.
