FAQ for Juniper JNP-25G-DAC-1M Compatible DAC SFP28 25G Cable

Q1:Is this 25G SFP28 cable natively backward compatible with 10G SFP+ ports? A:Although SFP28 and SFP+ connectors are physically identical, standard SFP28 25G DAC is programmed as high-speed devices. Most ports that support only 10G cannot recognize 25G-coded cables due to a mismatch in EEPROM identifiers. Most Dell S-Series 25G ports support dual-speed operation at 10G and 25G.

Q2:How far can I run a SFP28 25G DAC cable?A:Because DAC cables are made of dual-core copper wire, they are relatively heavy and experience signal attenuation at a faster rate than fiber optic cables; therefore, the actual transmission distance for SFP28 25G DAC cable is limited to 7 meters or less.

Q3:What is the power consumption of this passive SFP28 25G DAC compared to 25G SR optics? A: HYTOPTODEVICE passive 25G DAC consumes near zero power (≤0.5W) and generates no heat. By comparison, a pair of 25G SR fiber optical transceivers consumes approximately 1.5W to 2.0W of power. For a rack containing 48 servers, switching to the HYTOPTODEVICE 25G DAC can save nearly 100W of power and significantly reduce the cooling load.

Q4:Will this 25G cable cause an "Unsupported Transceiver" error in HPE switches?A:No. DAC Manufacturer China HYTOPTODEVICE uses precise HPE EEPROM coding. Your device will recognize this 25g sfp28 cable as a genuine HPE 844471-B21, ensuring 100% compatibility.

Q5:Does 25G SFP28 DAC use Multi-mode or Single-mode fiber?A:Neither. The DAC(Direct-Attach Copper) is a copper cable. using a twinaxial copper architecture (Twinax) to transmit electrical signals directly, no light signals.There are not lasers or optical glass in DAC cable,  it is much cheaper than fiber optics.

Q6:Will this cable trigger "Unsupported Transceiver" alarms in Junos?A:No. HYTOPTODEVICE cables are pre-programmed and feature a genuine Juniper-specific EEPROM signature. Your switch will recognize the cable as a genuine Juniper JNP-25G-DAC-1M, ensuring zero CLI warnings and full diagnostic support.

Q7:Is 25G SFP28 DAC hot-swappable?A:HYTOPTODEVICE SFP28 25G DAC is hot-pluggable, hot Pluggable SFP28 Compliant.you can plug or unplug the passive DAC, while the device is powered on without damaging the hardware.

Q8:who makes the best 25G SFP28 DAC cable?A: Transceiver Manufacturer China HYTOPTODEVICE is the excellent provider.Sorce factory,reliable quality, 100% compatibiltiy.fast delivery and quick response.HYTOPTODEVICE send a tool that allows you to re-program the compatibility of your cables yourself.

Q9:Is 30AWG wire gauge enough for 25G at 1 meter？A: Yes,That is absolutely correct. For a transmission distance of 1 meter, 30 AWG cable strikes the optimal balance between flexibility (for easy cabling within Juniper racks) and signal integrity, exceeding the requirements for 25GbE copper links specified in the IEEE 802.3by standard.

Q10:What is the difference between "Passive" and "Active" DAC?There are distinct differences between Passive and Active DAC.The Passive DAC has no signal amplification. its lengths is under 7m. With zero power consumptions,it cost is cheaper. The Active DAC contains a chip to boost the signal. Used for slightly longer copper runs (up to 10m-15m) and is generally thinner/more flexible.

Q11:Can I plug a 25G DAC into a 10G SFP port?A:No. SFP28 (25G) ports can often accept 10G transceivers, but a 10G SFP port cannot scale up to recognize a 25G DAC cable. You should Make sure the cable speed matches the port with the lowest rated speed.
