## Long description

The BlueOptics SFP28-DAC-5M-BL is a 5-meter SFP28 direct attach copper (DAC) cable with SFP28 male connectors on both ends. Designed for short-reach, high-speed connections, this passive twinax cable supports 25G data rates and is intended for rack-to-rack or intra-rack links in data centers and high-performance computing environments. The cable is manufactured to industry MSA guidelines and is offered in a blue housing with black and silver elements, weighing approximately 0.13 kg.
Advantages
This direct attach cable provides a cost-effective physical link for short-distance 25G interconnects with low latency and low power consumption compared to active optical alternatives. As a passive twinax solution, it requires no external power or transceivers, simplifying installation and reducing potential points of failure. The 5 m length is suitable for connections across adjacent racks or within the same rack, offering predictable electrical performance for supported network equipment.
Suitable for
Short-reach 25G Ethernet connections between switches
Server-to-switch links in data centers
Storage system interconnects supporting 25G protocols
High-performance computing clusters requiring low-latency links
Key specifications
Connector type: SFP28 male on both ends
Cable type: Passive twinax copper (DAC)
Supported data rate: 25 Gbit/s
Length: 5 meters
Wire gauge: 30 AWG
Compliance: MSA-compliant design
Product colour: Black and Silver with blue housing accents
Weight: approx. 0.13 kg
How to use
Install the SFP28-DAC-5M-BL by inserting each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both devices officially support passive SFP28 DAC connections and the intended 25G protocol (for example 25GBase-CR). Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; maintain the specified bend radius for twinax copper to preserve signal integrity. No additional configuration is required at the physical layer beyond verifying link status in device management interfaces.
Usage recommendations
Verify compatibility with the switch, router or storage vendor before deployment, and test the link in your environment to confirm expected throughput and stability. For optimal longevity, avoid repeated extreme flexing and keep the cable free from sharp edges or crushing forces.
