D-Link DEM-CB100S28 InfiniBand/fibre optic cable 1 m SFP28 Black Silver

The D-Link DEM-CB100S28 is a 1 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable with SFP28 connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed 25G data transmission in server and data center environments. It provides reliable short-distance in-rack connectivity between servers and switches and is available in black and silver finish.

Advantages

The cable supports a 25G data rate for data-intensive, mission-critical links and is engineered for reliable performance in high-performance computing and server racks. It conforms to industry standards ensuring compatibility with equipment that follows SFF-8402, SFF-8432, EIA-364, and EIA-364-1000.01 specifications. Its compact 1 m length is cost-effective for short-distance in-rack connections and reduces excess cabling.

Suitable for

• Short-distance in-rack links between servers and switches
• Data centre interconnects and top-of-rack networking
• High-performance computing (HPC) clusters and InfiniBand deployments

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector into the appropriate SFP28 port on your server, switch, or network adapter until it clicks into place. Ensure devices are powered off or follow hot-plug procedures recommended by the equipment manufacturer if connecting live. Verify link status and configuration on connected devices and monitor for proper operation using standard network management tools.

Recommendations

For optimal performance use the 1 m length for in-rack, short-distance connections to minimize signal loss and cable clutter. Confirm device compatibility with SFP28 modules and follow equipment manufacturers' guidelines for hot-plugging and handling fibre optic components.
