Cisco SFP-H25G-CU5M= 25GBASE-CU SFP28 Cable 5 m | DAC, Enterprise — SFP-H25G-CU5M=

Support short-reach 25 GbE connectivity with Cisco SFP-H25G-CU5M=. This 5 m 25GBASE-CU SFP28 cable is designed for direct attach use between compatible ports, giving infrastructure teams a practical way to connect adjacent devices without adding optical modules and separate fiber assemblies. In high-density racks, that simplicity can reduce parts count, streamline procurement, and make port planning easier. A copper direct attach cable is often the right choice when the link distance is short and the goal is to keep the deployment efficient. With a 5 m reach, this cable provides enough flexibility for rack-to-rack or within-row connections while staying aligned with the physical realities of modern switching and server layouts. It is a strong fit for teams that value deterministic cabling, fewer components, and straightforward installation. For enterprise environments standardizing on 25 GbE, this Cisco cable offers a clean path to dependable interconnects. It is especially useful where cable management, cost control, and fast deployment matter as much as raw link speed. Ideal For Connecting adjacent switches in a 25 GbE rack Linking servers to top-of-rack switches over short distances Reducing optical module usage in dense data center rows Standardizing direct attach cabling for 25 GbE deployments Why This Product 1 Direct attach copper reduces component count versus optical links 2 5 m reach suits rack-to-rack and within-row 25 GbE runs 3 SFP28 connectivity aligns with modern 25 GbE port designs 4 Better fit for short-reach enterprise links than fiber assemblies
