FAQs

Q: Is 2.5 m suitable for in-rack server connections?
A: Yes. 2.5 m is commonly used for TOR-to-server or switch interconnects within the same rack or adjacent racks.

Q: Does this passive DAC require special configuration?
A: No. If the devices support passive QSFP28 DACs, link-up is typically plug-and-play.

Q: What protocols are supported?
A: 100 Gigabit Ethernet and InfiniBand EDR when both endpoints support these modes over QSFP28.

Q: Can this replace an optical transceiver for short runs?
A: Yes. DACs are a cost-effective, low-latency alternative for short distances.

Q: Is it vendor-locked?
A: Compatibility depends on device coding acceptance. Check your platform’s DAC compatibility list if vendor locks apply.
