## Summary description

Copper Direct Attach cable by BlueOptics with QSFP28 connectors, 1 meter length, supporting 100GBASE-CR4 Ethernet links. Constructed with 30AWG conductors for short-reach 100 Gbps interconnects between switches, routers or servers. Suitable for data center top-of-rack, aggregation or adjacent equipment connections where a passive 100G DAC is required.

## Long description

BlueOptics QSFP28 Direct Attach Cable 1m is a passive copper interconnect designed for 100GBASE-CR4 Ethernet links. The cable features QSFP28 connectors at both ends and a 1 metre fixed length, offering a compact solution for short-reach 100 Gbps connections between switches, routers or servers in data center environments. Constructed with 30AWG conductors, this DAC supports full 100G data rates over direct electrical connections without electrical-to-optical conversion, reducing latency and power consumption for adjacent equipment links.
Advantages
The cable provides a reliable, low-latency connection for 100 Gbps links using standardized QSFP28 interfaces and a hardened copper assembly suited to rack-level interconnects. Its 1 m length and 30AWG construction deliver predictable electrical characteristics for short-distance runs while avoiding the need for transceivers, which can lower total equipment cost and simplify installation. Passive operation eliminates active components in the link, making the cable a simple, maintenance-free option for dense deployment scenarios.
Suitable for
Top-of-rack connections between switches and servers
Aggregation and spine links within data center racks
Short interconnects between adjacent network devices requiring 100GBASE-CR4
Key specifications
Connector type: QSFP28 to QSFP28
Supported standard: 100GBASE-CR4
Length: 1 metre (fixed)
Cable gauge: 30AWG
Operation: Passive direct attach copper (DAC)
Data rate: 100 Gbps (aggregate)
How to use
Install the cable by inserting each QSFP28 connector into the corresponding port on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both ends are fully seated and that the cable is routed without sharp bends or excessive strain; maintain manufacturer-recommended bend radius for 30AWG assemblies. Use this DAC for short-range, rack-level links where direct electrical connections are supported by device ports and the 100GBASE-CR4 physical layer is accepted by the equipment.
Usage recommendations
Verify compatibility with the switch or server vendor for passive QSFP28 DACs and confirm that the equipment accepts 100GBASE-CR4 copper attachments. Avoid installation near strong electromagnetic sources, and handle connectors by the housing to prevent contamination. For best results, keep cable runs within 1 m and follow data center cable management practices to prevent connector stress.
