The JBX06418 1.5m 25GBASE-CR SFP28 passive direct attach copper cable represents an excellent solution for organizations seeking reliable, cost-effective high-speed network connectivity. Engineered specifically for Dell environments, this cable delivers the performance and compatibility required by modern data centers. **Key Performance Features** Operating at 25 gigabits per second, this DAC cable provides substantial bandwidth for demanding applications including virtualization, cloud storage, and real-time data processing. The passive design requires no external power, reducing infrastructure complexity and operational costs compared to active solutions. The 1.5-meter length offers flexibility for standard rack-to-rack deployments within typical data center configurations. **Construction & Materials** The cable features premium 30AWG twinax copper construction with protective plastic jacketing, ensuring signal integrity and durability in active network environments. Copper connectors on both SFP28 ends deliver consistent, corrosion-resistant connectivity. This robust construction maintains performance specifications across the operating temperature range of 0 to 70°C (32 to 158°F). **Compliance & Certification** Fully compliant with RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC and ELV standards, the JBX06418 meets strict environmental and safety requirements. Certifications include IEEE 802.3by, SFF-8402, and SFF-8472 specifications, with TUV and UL safety certifications. These qualifications ensure the cable meets enterprise-grade standards and regulatory requirements globally. **Dell Compatibility** Direct compatibility with Dell infrastructure means seamless integration without costly adaptations. The cable replaces multiple OEM part numbers (02-SSC-8391-1.5M, 470-ACEX-150CM, 470-ACES-150CM), providing flexibility for upgrades and replacements. This compatibility extends across Dell's SFP28-equipped network switches and infrastructure. **Practical Applications** Ideal for server-to-switch connections, switch-to-switch uplinks, and storage area network (SAN) implementations. The passive DAC approach makes it particularly suitable for budget-conscious organizations without sacrificing performance. Organizations upgrading from 10GB to 25GB speeds will find this cable an economical transition solution. **Warranty & Support** Backed by a 90-day limited warranty, with convenient free standard shipping on orders over $99. Ships from U.S. locations ensuring quick delivery for urgent infrastructure needs.
