50G SFP56 Active DAC, 1m (3ft)
The 50G SFP56 Active DAC, 1m (3ft) is a active twinax direct attach copper cable with SFP56, supporting 50Gbps links over a length of 1m (3ft). Active electronics inside the connectors extend the usable reach compared with passive copper while keeping power draw low. It is a cost effective, low latency interconnect for 50G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, and complies with industry MSA standards.

Applications
Designed for 50G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, the 50G SFP56 Active DAC, 1m (3ft) carries 50Gbps between SFP56 interfaces. This unit is delivered in 5 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 7m (23ft). Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. Compatibility with systems is verified in our own test lab before shipment, so the unit works out of the box as an equivalent of Generic.
Standards and Compatibility
Compliance: industry MSA standards. For projects standardized on hardware, this product replaces the Generic directly, with identical fit and function. Every unit's EEPROM coding and link behavior are verified on real host equipment in our lab, so what arrives at your site is ready to use.
Ordering Information
The ordering part number is SFP-50G-AC01. We make this cable in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft) and 7m (23ft). Special lengths outside this range can be produced to order. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Quality Assurance
Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.
Packaging
Each unit is sealed in an anti-static bag, cushioned in a blister tray and boxed in an export-grade carton. Outer cartons carry handling marks and can be palletized for air or sea freight. If your project requires retail boxes, barcodes or your own brand on the label, we can arrange that as well.
Factory Custom Capability
Working directly with the manufacturer means no middleman limits. We support OEM and ODM projects, custom cable assemblies, alternative packaging and compatibility coding for major equipment vendors, with engineering support from the same team that designs our standard products.
Logistics
Our warehouse keeps fast-moving transceivers and cables ready for same-week dispatch. Courier, air freight and sea freight options are all available depending on your budget and schedule, and we consolidate multiple items into one shipment whenever it saves you cost.
