## Summary description

Direct Attach Cable (DAC) Lightwin LWO-DAC-SFP28-5M is a 5 m SFP28-to-SFP28 passive copper/fabric interconnect designed for 25Gbps InfiniBand or Ethernet links. It features dual SFP28 connectors, black jacket and plug-and-play connectivity for short-reach server-to-switch or switch-to-switch links in data centers and telecom racks.

## Long description

The Lightwin DAC cable SFP28 to SFP28 25Gbps (LWO-DAC-SFP28-5M) is a 5 m passive direct attach copper cable with SFP28 male connectors at both ends. It is designed for short-reach, high-speed 25 Gbit/s links between servers, switches or other networking equipment in data centers and telecom racks, offering plug-and-play connectivity with a black outer jacket.
Advantages
This DAC cable provides low-latency, energy-efficient connectivity for 25GbE or InfiniBand environments and requires no external transceivers, simplifying installation and reducing component count. The pre-terminated SFP28 male connectors allow immediate use with compatible ports and the fixed 5 m length is suitable for short interconnects in rack or row deployments.
Suitable for
Short-reach server-to-switch connections in data centers
Switch-to-switch links within the same rack or adjacent racks
25 Gbit/s Ethernet or InfiniBand high-speed links
When it may not be suitable
This passive DAC is intended for short distances and will not be suitable for long-haul or campus connections where fiber optics or active optical cables are required. It also requires that both endpoints have compatible SFP28 ports; it will not work with devices lacking SFP28 interfaces or that require vendor-locked transceivers.
Key specifications
Cable type: Passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC)
Connectors: SFP28 male to SFP28 male
Maximum data rate: 25 Gbit/s
Length: 5 m
Colour: Black
How to use
Insert each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port on the devices until the latch engages. Ensure both devices are powered and configured for 25 Gbit/s operation; the link generally comes up automatically without additional configuration. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain, keeping slack to prevent stress on the connectors.
What to consider before purchase
Verify both devices have compatible SFP28 ports and support 25 Gbit/s links
Confirm 5 m length meets your rack or equipment spacing requirements
Check whether your environment requires active optical cables or vendor-specific transceivers instead of a passive DAC
Usage recommendations
Use this Lightwin SFP28 to SFP28 25Gbps DAC for short intra-rack or adjacent-rack connections where low latency and simplified installation are priorities; avoid installing under tension or bending beyond manufacturer bend radius specifications to maintain signal integrity.
