Description

Lenovo 7Z57A03562 100G DAC Cable

Overview

The Lenovo 7Z57A03562 is a 1-meter 100Gbps QSFP28 Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable. It provides a cost-effective, low-latency, direct connection for high-speed networking and server-to-server communication within racks or adjacent racks. This cable is designed for environments requiring maximum bandwidth with minimal power consumption and signal degradation.

Compatibility

This 100G QSFP28 DAC cable is compatible with Lenovo ThinkSystem servers and network adapters that feature QSFP28 ports. Specifically, it is designed for use with 100GbE QSFP28 adapters such as the ThinkSystem Mellanox ConnectX-6 Dx 100GbE QSFP56 adapters (e.g., 4Xc7A08248, 4Xc7A08243) and other systems supporting 100G QSFP28 interfaces. It ensures direct connectivity for high-performance computing, data analytics, and enterprise networking applications.

Installation Notes

The 7Z57A03562 cable requires a QSFP28 port on both connecting devices. Ensure the ports are clean and free of debris before insertion. The cable is passive, meaning it does not require external power. For optimal signal integrity, avoid sharp bends and excessive strain on the connectors. The 1-meter length is ideal for intra-rack connections or connections between adjacent racks, minimizing cable clutter and signal loss.
