Upgrade Your Data Center Speed with 100Gb/s Breakout Connectivity
The 10Gtek 100G QSFP28 to 4x 25G SFP28 Breakout DAC Cable provides a reliable and efficient solution for high-speed networking needs in India. This passive copper twinax cable, measuring 1 meter (3.3ft), is designed for direct-attach connections within data center racks and across adjacent racks, offering a cost-effective alternative to optical transceivers. It supports a total data rate of 100Gb/s, breaking out to four 25G SFP28 ports, making it suitable for demanding applications like high-performance computing and telecommunication infrastructure.
Engineered for signal integrity, this cable is TDR & VNA tested and individually verified on switches before dispatch. It boasts compatibility with Cisco QSFP-4SFP25G-CU1M and works with various switches, servers, FPGAs, and network devices including Mikrotik, Mellanox, Xilinx, and Solarflare. The passive design ensures ultra-low power consumption and latency, crucial for optimizing network performance in high-density environments.
This 10Gtek DAC cable is imported to India with all customs duties and GST pre-paid, ensuring a transparent landed price. It offers a robust solution for expanding network capacity and connectivity within your Indian data center or enterprise network. For optimal performance, ensure your connected devices support the QSFP28 and SFP28 interfaces and are within the specified temperature ranges.
High-Speed, Cost-Effective Data Center Connectivity
This 10Gtek DAC cable delivers essential 100Gb/s to 4x 25Gb/s breakout connectivity, a critical need for modern Indian data centers and high-performance computing environments. Unlike expensive active cables or transceivers, its passive copper design offers significant cost savings for short-reach interconnections within racks. Rigorous testing ensures it meets the demands of enterprise-grade networking, providing a reliable link for servers, switches, and storage devices. Imported directly to India, all customs duties and GST are included in the price, offering transparent landed costs for your IT infrastructure investments.
Ideal for Rack-Level Interconnects, Not for Long Runs
This 1-meter passive DAC cable is perfect for connecting devices within the same rack or across adjacent racks, where short-reach, high-bandwidth is required. It is not designed for longer distances or inter-rack connections beyond 1 meter. If you need to connect switches across different rows or floors, consider active optical cables or transceivers. This cable is best suited for users who require direct, passive connectivity between compatible QSFP28 and SFP28 ports and understand its 1-meter limitation.
Typical situations where 10Gtek 100G QSFP28 to 4x 25G SFP28 Breakout DAC Cable 1m (3.3ft) | High-Speed Network Connectivity helps — illustrative scenarios, not customer reviews.
A data center in Mumbai needs to connect servers within a rack to a high-density switch.
This 10Gtek 1m breakout DAC cable provides a cost-effective, high-speed 100Gb/s to 4x 25Gb/s link, eliminating the need for multiple transceivers and fiber. It ensures reliable connectivity for critical server-to-switch communication within the rack.
A research institution in Bangalore requires high-bandwidth connections for FPGA development and high-performance computing clusters.
This cable enables direct, low-latency connections between QSFP28 ports on switches and SFP28 ports on FPGAs or servers, supporting the demanding data rates required for complex computations and data analysis.
