100G QSFP28 to QSFP28 1m DAC Cable | HP/Aruba Compatible, Passive

Keep high-speed links tight, predictable, and cost-controlled with this 1 m QSFP28 direct attach copper cable. Built for HP/Aruba-compatible environments, it is designed for short-reach 100G connections where passive copper is the right fit: adjacent switches, server-to-switch uplinks, and tightly packed rack interconnects. Direct attach copper reduces the number of components in the path, which helps simplify procurement, installation, and troubleshooting. For infrastructure teams standardizing on QSFP28-based 100G fabrics, this cable offers a practical alternative to optical modules when the run stays within rack or between neighboring cabinets. The 1 m length supports clean cable management in dense enclosures without excess slack. This is the kind of cable that earns its place in production by doing one job well: delivering short-distance 100G connectivity with minimal overhead. It is a straightforward choice for teams that value deterministic cabling, fewer failure points, and a lower-cost path to high-bandwidth links.
