Built for short-reach 100 GbE interconnects, this 3 m QSFP28 direct attach cable from UNC GROUP gives infrastructure teams a clean way to connect high-speed ports without adding optical modules. In dense switching fabrics, that means fewer parts to source, lower power consumption at the port, and less heat in the rack. The 3 m length is well suited to top-of-rack and adjacent-rack deployments where a little extra reach is needed for orderly routing. As a direct attach copper solution, it supports low-latency connectivity for switch-to-switch and switch-to-server links while keeping the physical layer straightforward. That simplicity matters when you are standardizing high-port-count environments and want predictable behavior across repeated installs. For teams building around Arista-compatible infrastructure, this cable provides a practical short-distance option for 100 GbE links where optical reach is unnecessary. It is a focused choice for environments that value density, speed, and operational efficiency in the same cable assembly.
