Add-On SFP-28G-PDAC2-5M-EX-AO 25Gbps Direct Attach Cable
Overview
The Add-On SFP-28G-PDAC2-5M-EX-AO is a TAA-compliant 5-meter SFP28 direct attach copper cable. It provides a cost-effective solution for short-reach 25 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, ideal for switch-to-switch or server-to-switch connections within a rack or adjacent racks. This cable ensures reliable data transmission without the need for transceivers, simplifying deployment and reducing potential points of failure.
Compatibility
This cable is designed to be compatible with any SFP28 port on network switches, servers, or network interface cards that support the SFP28 standard. It is specifically engineered to be compatible with Extreme Networks equipment, ensuring seamless integration into existing Extreme Networks infrastructure. It functions as a direct replacement for proprietary vendor cables, offering equivalent performance and reliability.
Installation Notes
The SFP28 connectors should be inserted firmly into the corresponding SFP28 ports until they click into place. Ensure the cable is not subjected to excessive bending or stress, as this can degrade signal integrity. The cable operates within standard data center temperature ranges and does not require any software configuration.
