FAQs
What is a direct attach cable and how does it differ from regular SFP28 cables?
A direct attach cable (DAC) is a passive copper cable with integrated SFP28 connectors at both ends. Unlike active optical cables or transceiver-based solutions, DACs require no additional modules or power, making them cost-effective for short distances up to 1 metre.
Is the TP-Link SM6220-1M compatible with my existing network equipment?
Yes, the SM6220-1M features standard 25G SFP28 connectors, making it compatible with any network equipment that supports 25G SFP28 ports, including switches, routers, and servers from major vendors.
Can I use this cable for distances longer than 1 metre?
The SM6220-1M is rated for distances up to 1 metre. Using it beyond this distance may result in signal degradation and reduced performance. For longer distances, consider active optical cables or fibre solutions.
Does the cable support both 25Gbps and 10Gbps operation?
Yes, the SM6220-1M supports both 25Gbps and 10Gbps data rates, providing flexibility to work with different network configurations and speed requirements.
What warranty coverage is included with this cable?
The TP-Link SM6220-1M includes a 3-year manufacturer warranty, providing protection against defects in materials and workmanship.
Are there any special installation or handling requirements?
Direct attach cables are passive components with no special installation requirements. Simply insert into compatible SFP28 ports until they click. Handle connectors carefully and avoid bending the cable excessively to maintain signal integrity.
