25G SFP28 Active DAC

The 25G SFP28 Active DAC, 1m (3ft) provides a 25Gbps copper connection between SFP28 to SFP28 ports with a cable length of 1m (3ft). Active electronics inside the connectors extend the usable reach compared with passive copper while keeping power draw low. Direct attach copper keeps both latency and power consumption to a minimum, which makes it the economical choice for 25G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks.

Applications
In 25G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks, the 25G SFP28 Active DAC, 1m (3ft) provides a factory terminated 25Gbps link between SFP28 to SFP28 ports. This unit is stocked in 9 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 9m (29ft). Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. Custom labeling, packaging and compatibility coding for specific equipment vendors are available from our factory on request.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with IEEE 802.3, SFP28 MSA, SFF-8402. It plugs into any standards-based SFP28 to SFP28 port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.
Ordering Information
Order reference: part number SFP-25G-AC01. Standard supply covers 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 4m (13ft), 5m (16ft), 6m (20ft), 7m (23ft), 8m (26ft) and 9m (29ft). Custom length production is available for project requirements. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Delivery
Goods are normally sent by courier such as DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS; air and sea freight are also available on request. Commonly used items are kept in stock for immediate shipment, and out-of-stock items are usually delivered within a few working days. We can also ship on your courier account or hand goods to your appointed forwarder.
Quality Assurance
Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.
Packaging
Each unit is sealed in an anti-static bag, cushioned in a blister tray and boxed in an export-grade carton. Outer cartons carry handling marks and can be palletized for air or sea freight. If your project requires retail boxes, barcodes or your own brand on the label, we can arrange that as well.
Customization Service
Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.
