FAQs

Q: What devices can I connect with this 25G SFP28 to SFP28 DAC?
A: It connects any compatible SFP28 ports, such as Aruba switches, server NICs and storage adapters, and works with most standards‑compliant SFP28 interfaces.

Q: Is 5 metres suitable for top‑of‑rack and short inter‑rack links?
A: Yes. 5m DACs are purpose‑built for short‑reach, low‑latency links such as server uplinks to a top‑of‑rack switch or adjacent rack connections.

Q: What’s the difference between DAC and AOC?
A: DAC is a passive copper twinax assembly with very low latency and no power draw, ideal for short distances. AOC is an active fibre assembly that supports longer reaches but typically costs more.

Q: Can this SFP28 DAC operate at 10GbE speeds?
A: Many SFP28 ports can downshift to 10GbE depending on device support and configuration, but behaviour varies by platform. Check your switch or NIC datasheet for 10G compatibility.

Q: How do I purchase this in Australia from IP Trading?
