Product Overview
The Avid NEXIS Direct Attach Cable — 25GbE SFP28, 3 Meter is a passive copper direct attach cable (DAC) for 25 Gigabit Ethernet SFP28 connections. This 3-meter DAC provides a cost-effective direct copper connection between two 25GbE SFP28 ports, without the need for optical transceivers. It is suitable for within-rack or short adjacent-rack connections in Avid NEXIS storage deployments.
