Extreme Networks 25G Passive DAC SFP28 1 m Cable

Build short 25GbE links with a direct attach cable designed for dense infrastructure. The Extreme Networks 25G Passive DAC SFP28 1 m cable is intended for short-distance connections between compatible SFP28 ports, giving you a simple copper path for switch-to-server, switch-to-switch, or top-of-rack deployments. Passive DACs are often the right choice when equipment sits in the same rack or adjacent racks and you want to avoid the added cost and complexity of optical transceivers. This 1 m length keeps cable management tight, reduces excess slack, and supports cleaner airflow in crowded enclosures. For teams standardizing on 25GbE, the value is in the balance of speed, simplicity, and cost control. It is a practical fit for environments that need dependable short-run connectivity without paying for optics where copper is enough. In high-density racks, that difference matters.
