Use Case

Why data centres rely on DAC cables for high-speed, cost-effective connectivity

DAC cables (Direct Attach Cables) play a vital role in modern data centres, providing fast, reliable, and cost-effective short-range connectivity. By simplifying server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links, DAC cables help operators reduce costs, lower power consumption, and maintain the high performance demanded by today’s data-intensive workloads.

Lower Total Cost

DAC cables eliminate the need for separate optical transceivers, reducing both capital expenditure and ongoing power costs.

Faster Deployment

Pre-tested, plug-and-play cables make installation simple and reliable, saving time in high-density data centre environments.

Reliable Performance

Direct copper connections ensure low latency and stable operation, critical for data-intensive applications like cloud services and storage networking.
