1422 Series 25G SFP28 Direct Attach Copper Cable Assemblies

The 3M 25G SFP28 direct attach copper cable assemblies, 1422 series, are passive copper cable assemblies which utilize 3M Twin Axial Cable technology. They create a highly-flexible, foldable, high-performance solution with bandwidths up to 25 Gbps to connect servers, switches, storage, and other high-speed equipment. 3M’s SFP28 cable assemblies (1422 series) deliver data bandwidth up to 25 Gbps (1 Gbps x 25 Gbps per channel) for lengths up to 2 meters with 30 AWG and from 2 meters to 4 meters with 26 AWG.

These assemblies are designed to meet industry standard protocols defined in IEEE 802.3by, SFF-8431, and 25G Ethernet. Additionally, these assemblies have been tested at the Open Networking Systems Interoperability PlugFest (UNH-IOL). These cable assemblies are typically used in data center network applications or high-performance computing applications that require higher bandwidths.

3M passive copper cable assemblies for SFP28 applications are cost-effective I/O solutions offering excellent routability, low power, and low latency. They feature a foldable, flexible, thin cable that allows for tight bends at the connector and stacking of cables for smaller bundles.
