At 0.5m (1.64 ft), this ultra-thin 30 AWG cable handles high-speed short-reach interconnects without the cost or latency overhead of active optical solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor network administrators sourcing a passive DAC cable for UniFi switches or building high-density 25GbE infrastructure, the UC-DAC-SFP28 delivers a low-cost, plug-and-play interconnect solution. Its backward compatibility with SFP+ ports extends its utility across mixed-generation environments, making it a practical choice for deployments where 10GbE and 25GbE equipment coexist on the same network fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePassive direct attach cables eliminate the power draw and signal conversion overhead of active optical transceivers, reducing both operating cost and heat load in dense switch environments. The UC-DAC-SFP28's ultra-thin profile and 30 AWG construction support high-density rack cabling without restricting airflow - a meaningful advantage in structured data center and enterprise network deployments where cable management directly affects thermal performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features of the UniFi SFP28 DAC Patch Cable\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e25 Gb\/s Data Transfer Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handles full 25GbE throughput between compatible network devices, enabling high-bandwidth server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections without active components.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePassive Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eliminates the power consumption and heat generation of active optical transceivers, reducing operating costs and simplifying thermal management in high-density rack environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSFP+ Backward Compatible:\u003c\/strong\u003e Works with SFP+ ports in addition to SFP28, protecting the investment in this cable across mixed-generation network infrastructure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUltra-Thin 30 AWG Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 0.17-inch cable diameter supports clean, high-density rack cabling with minimal airflow obstruction compared to standard twinax cables.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUniFi Ecosystem Integration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Part of Ubiquiti's UACC accessory series, designed to complement UniFi switching platforms for consistent, validated performance within the UniFi network stack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShort-Reach Patch Application:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 0.5m length targets within-rack and top-of-rack interconnects where direct attach cabling is the most cost-effective high-speed solution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e UC-DAC-SFP28\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Line:\u003c\/strong\u003e UniFi (UACC Series)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Direct Attach Cable (DAC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnector Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e SFP28 (male, both ends)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eData Transfer Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 Gb\/s\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5m (1.64 ft)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAWG:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30 AWG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.17 in\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e White\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eActive\/Passive:\u003c\/strong\u003e Passive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBackward Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e SFP+ ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDevice Supported:\u003c\/strong\u003e Network devices\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.40 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ubiquiti","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46154806493381,"sku":"UBI-UCDACSFP28","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/3085\/3829\/files\/a82332cbbf1c8a26fd2d163f9b8516cd.jpg?v=1777568380","url":"https:\/\/avlgear.com\/products\/ubiquiti-uc-dac-sfp28-computer-network-cables","provider":"AVLGEAR","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
