HPE JL487A 25G SFP28 DAC Cable
Overview
The HPE JL487A is a 0.65-meter Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable designed for high-speed 25 Gigabit Ethernet (25GbE) connections between network devices. This cable is ideal for short-reach interconnects within racks or between adjacent racks, providing a cost-effective and low-latency alternative to active optical cables. Its passive design means no power is consumed by the cable itself, simplifying deployment and reducing heat generation in dense environments. This specific cable terminates in SFP28 connectors, ensuring compatibility with modern high-performance networking equipment.
Compatibility
This cable is engineered for use with HPE Aruba networking switches and other equipment featuring SFP28 ports. It is suitable for connecting devices within the same rack or adjacent racks where 25GbE connectivity is required. Verify compatibility with your specific switch model, particularly if using non-HPE branded equipment, to ensure the SFP28 interface is supported.
Installation Notes
The SFP28 connectors feature a pull tab for secure insertion and removal. Ensure the ports on both devices are clean before insertion. The 0.65-meter length is optimized for intra-rack connections, minimizing cable clutter and signal degradation. No configuration is required for the cable itself; it functions as a passive link between two SFP28 ports.
