Lightwin 25G SFP28 Direct Attach Copper Cable, 1m, HPE Aruba Compatible LWO-DAC-SFP28-1M-HPE

The Lightwin LWO-DAC-SFP28-1M-HPE is a 25G SFP28 direct attach copper (DAC) cable engineered for high-density data center interconnects. Its passive copper design delivers 25 Gbps throughput with minimal power draw, making it an energy-efficient choice for short-reach links between servers, switches, and storage systems. Fully compatible with HPE Aruba networking equipment, this 1-meter cable provides a plug-and-play solution for 25 Gigabit Ethernet and InfiniBand EDR applications.

Advantages

Passive copper construction eliminates the need for optical transceivers, reducing both cost and latency. The cable consumes less than 0.1 W, contributing to lower operating expenses in large-scale deployments. Hot-swappable SFP28 connectors allow for seamless installation and maintenance without network disruption. The 30 AWG conductors and PVC jacket ensure durability and signal integrity over the 1-meter length.

Suitable for

• Data center rack-to-rack and server-to-switch connections
