Ideal for data centers and high-performance computing environments, this cable provides a cost-effective solution for short-distance connections.

## Long description

The BlueOptics SFP28-DAC-5M-UQ is a 5-meter SFP28 Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable with male-to-male connectors designed for high-speed 25Gbps links. Built for short-reach connections inside racks and between adjacent racks, this cable provides a compact, low-latency physical link for switches, servers and network interface cards that support SFP28 ports. The BlueOptics design emphasizes reliable electrical performance and a standardized SFP28 form factor to ensure compatibility with equipment that accepts passive DAC assemblies.
Advantages
This 5m SFP28 DAC cable offers a cost-effective alternative to optical transceivers for short distances, delivering consistent 25Gbps throughput with low power consumption. Its male-to-male SFP28 connectors provide straightforward plug-and-play installation and minimized signal loss compared with longer copper assemblies. The fixed-cable, direct-attach approach reduces components in the link, simplifying cable management and lowering latency for high-performance computing and data centre fabrics.
Suitable for
 Short-reach server-to-switch connections within racks
 Inter-rack links in densely populated data centres where runs are under 5 meters
 High-performance computing clusters requiring low-latency 25Gbps interconnects
 Top-of-rack and leaf-spine architectures using SFP28 ports
Key specifications
 Connector type: SFP28 male to SFP28 male
 Length: 5 metres
 Data rate: up to 25 Gbps per lane (SFP28 specification)
 Cable type: Direct Attach Copper (DAC), passive assembly
 Typical use: short-distance, in-rack or adjacent-rack links
 Form factor: SFP28 compliant housing
How to use
Install the BlueOptics SFP28-DAC-5M-UQ by aligning each SFP28 connector with the device port and inserting until the latch engages. Use this cable for direct connections between compatible SFP28 ports on switches, network interface cards and storage systems. No additional transceivers or fibre patch cords are required. Verify that both endpoints support passive DAC cables and the intended link speed, then confirm link status in your device management interface after insertion.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain bend radii greater than the manufacturer’s minimum; keep the run within 5 metres to ensure expected signal integrity. Use in environments with appropriate airflow and minimal electromagnetic interference. Check device documentation for compatibility with passive SFP28 DACs and update firmware if required to ensure stable 25Gbps operation.
