Know before you buy
While this cable is specifically programmed for compatibility with Cisco systems, it may not function correctly with hardware from other manufacturers. We recommend verifying your specific switch or server requirements before purchase.
This is a passive copper cable with a fixed length of 2 meters (6.56 feet). Because it is a passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC) solution, it is designed for short-reach connections within a single rack or adjacent racks.
In most cases, this cable is plug-and-play and will be recognized by your Cisco device immediately. However, ensure your switch ports are configured to support 25G speeds to maintain a stable link.
The lifetime warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship for the duration of the product's life. It provides peace of mind that the cable will perform reliably in your network environment without premature failure.
SFP28 ports are generally backward compatible with SFP+ (10G) modules, but performance depends on your specific switch's ability to auto-negotiate or manually set the port speed. Check your device documentation to confirm if it supports down-clocking to 10G.
