Product Overview

The Lenovo 3m Passive 25G SFP28 DAC Cable (7Z57A03558) is engineered to meet the stringent demands of high-bandwidth network infrastructures. Featuring SFP28 connectors on both ends in a male-to-male configuration, this direct attach cable (DAC) supports 25 Gigabit Ethernet transmission. As a passive twinax solution, it offers a cost-effective and energy-efficient alternative to active optical cables for short-distance, high-speed interconnects.

With a cable length of 3 meters, it is optimal for rack-to-rack or intra-rack deployments in enterprise data centers, high-performance computing environments, and cluster networks relying on rapid, stable data transport. Its DAC design reduces latency and power consumption compared to other optical solutions, making it ideal for short-distance links between switches, servers, or storage appliances supporting SFP28 ports.

Though specific country-of-origin (COO) and TAA compliance details are not available, the use of trusted Lenovo hardware provides added assurance of compatibility and performance reliability. This cable is best suited for IT professionals seeking dependable connections with reduced total cost of ownership (TCO).
