HPE JL487A is a passive direct attach copper (DAC) cable designed for 25 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity between SFP28-equipped network ports. Part number JL487A delivers 25G throughput over a compact 0.65-meter length, ideal for short-distance interconnects in high-density switch architectures, server-to-switch configurations, and storage area networks. The cable features SFP28 connectors on both ends and is fully compatible with HPE Arista and Mellanox network infrastructure supporting 25GbE standards.
Passive DAC construction eliminates the need for external power, reducing latency and heat output compared to active optical alternatives while maintaining reliable signal integrity at line rate. Typical deployments include top-of-rack switching, intra-chassis connections, and clustered server environments where low-latency, cost-effective connectivity is required.
