Cisco SFP-H25G-CU2.5M= 25GBASE-CU SFP28 Cable, 2.5 m | DAC, SFP28 — SFP-H25G-CU2.5M=

Keep short-reach 25 GbE links simple, fast, and predictable with Cisco’s 2.5 meter SFP28 direct attach copper cable. Designed for SFP28 interfaces, this cable is ideal when equipment sits in the same rack or in adjacent racks and you want to avoid the added cost and complexity of separate optical transceivers. Direct attach copper is a strong fit for high-density environments where latency, power draw, and cable management all matter. By using an integrated twinax-style assembly, this cable helps reduce points of failure while preserving the throughput needed for modern server uplinks, leaf-spine fabrics, and storage connectivity. The 2.5 meter length gives you enough reach for clean routing without excess slack that clutters airflow paths. For infrastructure teams standardizing on Cisco networking, this cable fits naturally into 25 GbE upgrade paths where reliability and compatibility are non-negotiable. It is a straightforward way to connect supported SFP28 ports with the performance profile expected in enterprise switching environments. When the job calls for short, direct, and cost-conscious 25G connectivity, this cable earns its place in the rack. Ideal For Connect top-of-rack switches to nearby servers in a 25 GbE fabric Link adjacent network devices inside the same equipment rack Patch storage and compute nodes in high-density data center rows Replace optical links where short-reach copper is sufficient Why This Product 1 Short 2.5 meter reach for clean rack routing 2 Passive copper design avoids optical transceiver cost 3 SFP28-to-SFP28 connectivity for 25 GbE ports 4 Better fit for adjacent equipment than longer optical runs
