The lack of additional connection points also means lower latency, so you can be confident of your data integrity.We offer 6GBASE Mini SAS, 10G and 25G SFP+, 40G QSFP+ and 100G QSFP28 cables in a variety of configurations and lengths and all can be coded to be 100% compatible with your equipment. The main difference between an active DAC cable and a passive DAC cable is whether the signal processing is done or not. One end of 100G QSFP28 to 4×SFP28 DAC has a 100G QSFP28 port, and the other end has four 25G SFP28 ports. As mentioned above, DAC cables are used for directly connecting ports between active equipment; switches, routers, servers and storage.
