SFP28 Direct Attach -kaapeli CBO MCP2M00-A002E30N-BL 2 m, musta

The SFP28 direct-attach cable CBO MCP2M00-A002E30N-BL 2 m, black is a fixed copper twinax cable assembly designed for short-range, high-speed connections between SFP28 ports. Intended for use in data center and rack environments, this 2-meter cable provides a direct, low-latency 25GbE link between switches, network interface cards (NICs) and servers. The integrated SFP28 connectors eliminate the need for separate transceivers and simplify cabling for device-to-device connections within the same rack or between adjacent racks.

Advantages

This direct-attach cable offers low latency and power-efficient operation compared with active optical solutions for short distances. The fixed twinax construction ensures consistent electrical performance and signal integrity for 25GbE links, while the integrated connectors reduce component count and installation time. The 2 m length provides flexibility for rack and cabinet layouts without excess cable slack, and the black jacket offers a neutral appearance compatible with standard cabling practices.

Suitable for

• Short-range 25 Gigabit Ethernet interconnects between switches and top-of-rack devices
• Direct connections from servers to NICs or switch ports in the same rack
• High-density rack cabling where fixed, low-latency copper links are preferred

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP28 to SFP28 direct-attach (fixed twinax copper)
• Data rate: 25 Gigabit Ethernet (25GbE)
• Length: 2 meters
• Connector type: integrated SFP28 plug ends
• Cable jacket color: black
• Typical use: short-reach, rack-level interconnects

How to use

Power down or follow hot-plug procedures recommended by your equipment vendor, then insert each SFP28 plug into the corresponding SFP28 port until it latches. Ensure both ends are seated correctly and recognized by the host devices. Configure link settings on switches or servers as required for 25GbE operation and verify link status through device management interfaces. For removal, release the latch and withdraw the connector carefully to avoid stress on the cable or port.

Recommendations

Use this cable for short, fixed connections within racks or between adjacent racks to maintain low latency and consistent 25GbE performance. Avoid routing the cable in areas with sharp bends or sources of electrical interference; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius and secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors.
