## Summary description

The BlueLAN Q28-4S28-DAC-2M is a passive 100GBASE-CR4 QSFP28 to 4x25GBASE-CR SFP28 direct attach breakout cable. With a length of 2 meters and AWG26, it provides high-speed data transmission with reliable performance. Ideal for data centers and high-performance computing environments, this cable ensures efficient connectivity and minimal signal loss, making it a perfect choice for demanding networking applications.

## Long description

The BlueLAN Q28-4S28-DAC-2M is a passive QSFP28 to 4xSFP28 100GBASE-CR4 direct attach breakout cable designed for short-reach, high-bandwidth connections. At 2 meters in length and built with AWG26 conductors, this BlueOptics cable delivers 100 Gbps aggregated throughput via a single QSFP28 connector split into four 25 Gbps SFP28 links. It is intended for reliable, low-latency interconnects within racks and between adjacent racks in data centers and high-performance computing environments.
Advantages
This direct attach cable provides a cost-effective, low-power physical link without the need for active transceivers or separate optical components. Its passive construction reduces heat and power consumption while maintaining signal integrity over the 2 m distance. The breakout design simplifies port mapping by converting one QSFP28 port into four SFP28 ports, enabling flexible deployment of 100G to 25G links. AWG26 wiring supports stable electrical performance and minimal insertion loss for short-reach data center cabling.
Suitable for
 Top-of-rack and end-of-row short-reach connections in data centers
 Direct connections between QSFP28 switches and SFP28 servers or NICs
 High-performance computing clusters requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth links
 Switch-to-switch breakout applications where 100G needs to be split into 4×25G
Key specifications
 Connector types: QSFP28 to 4 × SFP28
 Standard: 100GBASE-CR4 (breakout to 4×25GBASE-CR)
 Length: 2 meters
 Cable gauge: AWG26
 Cable type: Passive direct attach copper (DAC) breakout cable
 Aggregate data rate: 100 Gbps (4 × 25 Gbps)
 Typical use: Short-reach intra-rack and adjacent-rack connections
How to use
Install the cable by inserting the QSFP28 end into the 100G-capable QSFP28 port on the switch or adapter, and insert each SFP28 connector into the corresponding 25G-capable SFP28 ports on target devices. Ensure ports are powered down or follow hot-plug guidelines specified by equipment vendors when connecting or disconnecting. Verify that switch firmware and NIC drivers support passive DAC breakout operation and that port mapping is configured to recognize the four 25G lanes. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive mechanical stress.
Usage recommendations
Use this passive breakout cable for short cable runs (within the same rack or adjacent racks) where low latency and low power consumption are priorities. Confirm compatibility with your network equipment and check vendor documentation for supported passive DAC connections and any required firmware settings before deployment.
