25 Gbit/s SFP28 Direct Attach Cable

This 0.65 m cable links two SFP28 ports at 25 Gbit/s. It is built for network engineers connecting Aruba 8325 series switches or other compatible network devices in a rack.

Passive copper reach limit

The 2.13 ft length suits adjacent or same-rack connections only; longer runs require active optical cables or transceivers. The SFP28 interface fixes the speed at 25 Gbit/s and does not negotiate lower rates.

Black SFP28 ends with latch

Both ends carry black SFP28 connectors that snap into standard cages on switches or NICs. The short, stiff cable routes cleanly between front-panel ports without blocking neighbouring modules.
