BlueOptics Edge Core ET7402-DAC-0.5M compatibele Direct Attach Copper-kabel, 100GBASE-CR4, InfiniBand EDR, 30AWG, 0,5m (ET7402-DAC-0.5M-BL)

The BlueOptics ET7402-DAC-0.5M-BL is a high-performance, cost-effective direct attach copper (DAC) cable designed for seamless compatibility with Edge Core ET7402-DAC-0.5M networking equipment. This passive QSFP28 to QSFP28 cable delivers 100 Gbps data rates, supporting both 100GBASE-CR4 Ethernet and InfiniBand EDR standards. Ideal for data center interconnects and high-performance computing (HPC) environments, it ensures reliable, low-latency connections over a 0.5-meter length with 30 AWG wire gauge.

Advantages

This BlueOptics DAC cable offers a cost-efficient alternative to OEM cables without compromising performance. It is fully compliant with SFF-8665 electrical interface standards and is backed by rigorous testing for compatibility and reliability. The passive design ensures ultra-low power consumption (<0.1W), making it an energy-saving choice for dense deployments. With a durable PVC jacket and operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C, it is built for long-term use in demanding environments.
