Ubiquiti SFP28 DAC 25Gbps 3m Cable

Exact specifications

Use cases and applications

A practical rack interconnect for compatible switches or server adapters. Check the routing length, connectors and bend space before purchase. Nominal cable speed does not upgrade an endpoint that only supports a lower rate; real throughput also depends on the surrounding network and workload.

Compatibility and important limits

• Both ports must support the exact DAC assembly and intended link speed. Check manufacturer interoperability rather than relying on connector shape.
• Respect the 31 mm minimum bend radius and leave room for the connectors and removal tabs.
• This is SFP28—not QSFP28, RJ45, USB or a fibre patch cable. The two connector form factors must not be confused.

Packaging and included items

One UACC-DAC-SFP28-3M cable with integrated SFP28 ends. No adapter, switch, optical module or mounting accessory is included. The family offers other lengths, but this listing is the 3 m single-unit variant.

Image note: Cable photographs are manufacturer family illustrations of the SFP28 connector design. The ordered 3 m length is identified by UACC-DAC-SFP28-3M, not by the number of visible cable loops.

Optional accessories and alternatives

Accessories and alternatives are optional, not a required bundle. Check exact connectors, platform fit and supported media before combining products. Browse Cables for the wider range.

Packaging measurements

Estimated shipping package for quotation planning: 25 × 25 × 6 cm. Catalogue gross unit weight: 0.15 kg; this is not the bare-product mass. Package dimensions are a planning estimate, not a measured manufacturer specification. Confirm the final packed parcel before dispatch.

Dispatch and warranty

Dispatch within 48 hours. Dispatch and destination delivery are separate; stock is not reserved by viewing this page.

Warranty and service: 12-month return-to-base service. Ubiquiti’s separate limited manufacturer warranty for reseller-channel products is measured from its shipment to the authorised channel, not automatically from your Mineshop purchase date. Its two-year direct-webstore warranty does not apply simply because this cable is purchased online. Contact Mineshop to check the supplied unit’s entitlement.

How to start a claim: Contact Mineshop support with your order number, product serial number where present, a fault description and useful diagnostic photos. Wait for return authorisation and packing instructions before sending the product.

Commercial warranty and service terms do not limit your statutory rights against the seller. Physical damage, installation errors and use outside the manufacturer’s specifications are assessed under the applicable terms; no repair turnaround or advance replacement is promised.

Frequently asked questions

Is the cable length exactly 3 m for this listing?

Yes. UACC-DAC-SFP28-3M identifies the 3 m variant. A shared family photograph does not itself prove length; the part number determines the ordered length.

Do I need separate optical modules?

No optical modules are required for a supported DAC link. The copper cable already includes the direct-attach ends.

Will it work at 10G?

Ubiquiti lists 25, 10 and 1 Gbps for the family. Both endpoints and their configuration must support the requested mode.

Can it plug into a 100G QSFP28 port?

Not directly. This cable has SFP28 connectors, not QSFP28. Do not infer compatibility from the shared number 28.

What bend space should I allow?

The manufacturer lists a minimum 31 mm bend radius for the 3 m variant. Leave additional space for the connector bodies and strain relief.

When is dispatch expected?

Dispatch within 48 hours. This is a dispatch estimate, not the arrival time. Delivery transit depends on destination and service.
