Description

Lenovo 7Z57A03561 1M DAC Cable

Overview

The Lenovo 7Z57A03561 is a 1-meter Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable designed for high-speed 100GbE network connectivity. It provides a cost-effective, low-latency solution for short-reach applications, such as connecting servers directly to top-of-rack switches or establishing server-to-server links within the same rack. This passive cable requires no external power, simplifying deployment and reducing potential points of failure.

Compatibility

This 100Gb QSFP28 DAC cable is engineered for direct integration with Lenovo ThinkSystem servers and network adapters. It is compatible with systems utilizing QSFP28 ports, including but not limited to the ThinkSystem Broadcom 57508 100GbE QSFP56 2-Port PCIe 4 Ethernet Adapter (4Xc7A08297) and the ThinkSystem Broadcom 57508 100GbE QSFP56 2-Port OCP Ethernet Adapter (4Xc7A08243). It is also suitable for connecting to any network device featuring a standard 100Gb QSFP28 interface, ensuring broad interoperability for short-distance, high-bandwidth needs.

Installation Notes

The cable features standard QSFP28 connectors that plug directly into compatible ports. Ensure the port is clean and free of debris before insertion. The connectors are designed for a secure fit; apply gentle, even pressure until the connector is fully seated. The passive nature of this DAC cable means no power adapter or configuration is required for operation. Operating temperature range is 0 to 55 °C (32 to 131 °F), with storage temperatures from -40 to 65 °C (-40 to 149 °F). Humidity tolerance is 5 to 95% non-condensing.
