FAQs
What is a direct attach cable and how does it differ from other SFP28 cables?
A direct attach cable (DAC) is a passive copper cable with integrated SFP28 modules on each end. Unlike active optical cables, DACs have no electronics, making them lower-cost, lower-power alternatives for shorter distances (typically up to 2 metres).
Is this cable compatible with my UniFi switches?
Yes, this cable is designed for Ubiquiti UniFi switches with SFP28 ports. Verify your switch model has SFP28 connectors before purchasing.
Can I use this cable for both 25Gbps and 10Gbps connections?
Yes, this cable supports 25 Gbps, 10 Gbps, and 1 Gbps data rates, so it works with equipment operating at any of these speeds.
What is the maximum cable distance for reliable 25Gbps performance?
Direct attach cables typically support 25Gbps over short distances. The 1-metre length provided is ideal for switch-to-switch connections in data centres and equipment racks.
Does this cable require any special drivers or firmware?
No, direct attach cables are passive and plug-and-play. No drivers, firmware updates, or active power management required.
What warranty is included?
This cable comes with a 12-month manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship.
