## Summary description

The BlueOptics SFP28-DAC-3M-IA-BL is a 3-meter SFP28 Direct Attach Copper cable with male connectors on both ends. It is designed for high-speed data transmission in data centers and networking environments. This cable offers reliable performance and low latency, making it ideal for connecting switches, routers, and servers.

## Long description

The BlueOptics SFP28-DAC-3M-IA-BL is a 3 meter SFP28 Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable with SFP28 male connectors on both ends. Designed for short-reach, high-speed links in data center and networking racks, this passive twinax cable supports 25GBase-CR electrical transmission and provides low-latency, low-power connectivity for compatible switches, routers and servers. The cable is MSA-compliant and intended for use where a reliable, cost-effective copper link is required between adjacent rack devices or within the same rack.
Advantages
The cable offers reliable 25 Gbit/s electrical transmission over a fixed 3 m distance with low power consumption and low latency typical of passive twinax DACs. It is built to meet MSA specifications for SFP28 interfaces and to be compatible with major hardware platforms that support 25GBase-CR passive DAC connections. The product's compact form factor and fixed length simplify rack cabling and reduce signal conversion points compared with active or optical links.
Suitable for
 Server-to-switch connections inside a rack
 Switch-to-switch links between adjacent racks or within the same rack
 High-performance networking equipment that supports SFP28 passive DACs
 Short-reach 25G Ethernet, FCoE or InfiniBand electrical links
Key specifications
 Connector type: SFP28 male to SFP28 male
 Length: 3 m
 Supported data rate: up to 25 Gbit/s per link
 Cable type: passive twinax copper, 30 AWG
 Power consumption: passive (negligible, typical for passive DAC)
 Product colour: black
 Weight: approximately 0.08 kg
 Compliance: MSA-compatible SFP28 DAC form factor
How to use
Install the SFP28-DAC-3M-IA-BL by inserting each SFP28 connector into the SFP28 port of the devices to be linked, ensuring the latches engage correctly. Use with networking devices that officially support passive SFP28 twinax DACs and 25GBase-CR electrical interfaces. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive mechanical stress; maintain proper airflow in the rack. No external power or transceiver modules are required for passive operation.
Использование — рекомендации
For reliable operation, verify device compatibility with passive SFP28 DACs in the hardware vendor documentation and test the cable in your target environment before deployment. Avoid repeated connector insertion/removal beyond typical maintenance cycles to preserve connector integrity.
