SFP28 to SFP28-25G-ACC-6M20FT 25G SFP28 Active Copper Twinax Cable, 6m (20ft)
For buyers working from an equipment parts list, SFP28 to SFP28-25G-ACC-6M20FT identifies more than a connector style. It refers here to a 6m (20ft) ACC cable for Generic hosts, supporting 25G operation with SFP28 to SFP28. The sections below separate the OEM cross-reference, physical specification and HT factory checks for straightforward purchasing review.

Power and Thermal Planning
The rated power consumption is ≤0.5W. Include this load in the host-port power and thermal budget, especially in densely populated switches. Maintain front-panel clearance and do not bundle the cable so tightly that it obstructs airflow around the connectors.
Length Selection and Installation Planning
The installation review for a 6m (20ft) link should include pathway length, support points, connector access and future maintenance. Route the complete copper assembly and both connector housings before attaching both ends, and avoid dragging it across connector panels. A final inspection should confirm that no latch, boot or jacket section carries unnecessary strain. Within this family, SFP28 to SFP28-25G-ACC-5M16FT is shorter at 5m (16ft), while SFP28 to SFP28-25G-ACC-7M23FT is the next longer choice at 7m (23ft); comparing those two boundaries helps avoid both tension and unnecessary slack.
Position Within the Length Range
SFP28 to SFP28-25G-ACC-6M20FT occupies the middle of this family between SFP28 to SFP28-25G-ACC-5M16FT at 5m (16ft) and SFP28 to SFP28-25G-ACC-7M23FT at 7m (23ft). It adds 1m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 1m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.
Procurement and Port-Mapping Review
A useful purchase order should identify the host platform, the expected OEM code and the exact cable length as separate pieces of information. This prevents a physically similar assembly from being substituted when the port identification or reach is different. For mixed-length installations, prepare one order line per part number and reconcile each delivered cable with its intended pair of ports. For this assembly, the listed conductor specification is 28AWG; the minimum bend radius is 24mm; the stated power consumption is ≤0.5W; the jacket material is PVC (OFNR).
Cable Construction and Routing
This assembly uses 28AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 24mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.
Network and Protocol Considerations
The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include IEEE 802.3, SFP28 MSA, SFF-8402. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.
Generic Compatibility and Factory Testing
Our procurement-oriented compatibility check begins with the OEM reference and ends with a live host link. We record the physical length separately from the identification configuration, so the cable supplied for this page remains the stated version rather than a generic length substitute. The check includes link stability and diagnostic indications, followed by a final inspection of both ends.
Ordering Information
For a clear bill of materials, quote the OEM reference, HT part number, length and quantity on the same line. Add the switch or server model and software release when a pre-order review is required; project labels can repeat those details for receiving and installation teams. Quantity and any labeling instructions should be attached specifically to SFP28 to SFP28-25G-ACC-6M20FT.
Quality Assurance and Packaging
Before packing, the assembly is checked for connector condition, identification and link operation. Cables for multi-line orders can be labelled and grouped by part number, making it easier to match each length to the procurement record without opening every protective bag. Standard protective packing is used by default, with project documentation arranged when requested.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an original equipment manufacturer cable?
No. It is manufactured by HT under our own manufacturer identity.
Will any matching connector operate at the same speed?
Not necessarily. Both hosts must support the stated rate, identification, lane mapping and any required breakout configuration; mechanical compatibility alone is insufficient.
What details assist a compatibility review?
Provide the equipment manufacturer, model, port type, hardware revision and software release, together with the OEM reference, required length and quantity.
How should an unused assembly be stored?
Protect both connector ends, keep the cable in a loose bend-safe coil and retain its part-number label so the length and compatibility identity remain traceable.
Shipping and Lead Time
Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days, while production quantities are confirmed with the order. International express, air cargo and sea freight can be selected according to destination and carton volume; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are also accepted.
