SVNK Direct Attach Cables (DAC) – High-Speed Copper Interconnect Technology
SVNK Direct Attach Cables (DAC) are high-speed,
cost-efficient copper interconnect solutions engineered as a powerful
alternative to optical transceivers and fiber-optic cabling for 10G, 40G, 100G,
200G, 400G, 800G, and emerging 1.6T network applications. Designed specifically
for short-reach environments, SVNK DACs deliver ultra-low latency, high signal
integrity, and reliable performance for within-rack and adjacent-rack
connections in modern data centers.
SVNK DAC technology is built on precision twinax copper
cabling, advanced high-frequency conductors, and optimized shielding structures
that support multi-lane, high-speed electrical signaling. Each assembly is
carefully engineered to control impedance, minimize insertion loss, suppress
crosstalk, and reduce return loss, ensuring clean signal transmission even at
extreme data rates. Advanced dielectric materials and multi-layer shielding
architectures provide superior protection against electromagnetic interference
(EMI) and external noise.
For higher-speed variants, SVNK DAC solutions incorporate
integrated signal conditioning and equalization technologies to compensate for
attenuation, skew, and high-frequency distortion inherent in copper media. This
enables stable, low-error transmission while maintaining exceptionally low
power consumption compared to optical alternatives.
SVNK DAC cables are optimized for high-density switch and
server environments, supporting tight bend radii, improved airflow, and
simplified cable management. Their plug-and-play design eliminates the need for
separate optical modules, reducing both capital expenditure and operational
complexity while enabling flexible network architectures and faster deployment
cycles.
From a system perspective, SVNK DAC assemblies help maximize
port density, thermal efficiency, and total cost of ownership (TCO). Their low
power draw and minimal heat generation make them especially well suited for
top-of-rack (ToR), end-of-row (EoR), and leaf-spine architectures deployed in
enterprise, cloud, AI, and hyperscale infrastructures.
Every SVNK DAC cable undergoes rigorous validation including
signal-integrity analysis, eye-diagram testing, bit-error-rate (BER)
verification, thermal cycling, and mechanical reliability assessments. This
ensures long-term stability, durability, and compliance with global networking
standards.
SVNK offers a full range of brand-compatible and OEM DAC
solutions, fully interoperable with leading networking platforms including
NVIDIA, Cisco, Finisar, Juniper, Arista, Dell, HPE, Extreme Networks, Brocade,
Mellanox, H3C, Intel, IBM, Nokia, Ciena, Huawei, and Ixia, enabling seamless
integration into multi-vendor network environments.
Engineered for reliability, ultra-low latency, and
effortless deployment, SVNK Direct Attach Cables deliver stable,
high-performance copper connectivity for enterprise networks, telecom
infrastructures, and hyperscale data centers seeking scalable, cost-optimized
interconnect solutions.
