10G/25G/40G/50G ACC Cables
Simple, Low-Latency Links for Racks & Adjacent Racks
Overview
The NSComm 10G/25G/40G/50G Active Direct Attach Copper (ACC) family is a cost-effective, ultra-low-latency cabling solution for short-reach Ethernet connectivity between switches, servers, and storage. ACC uses twinax copper with integrated SFP/QSFP connectors, giving you a plug-and-play alternative to optical transceivers and fiber patch cords.
Compared with passive DAC, ACC adds active circuitry to support stable performance at higher speeds and longer short-reach runs-making it ideal for in-rack and adjacent-rack deployments across enterprise networks and data centers.
Broad Compatibility
NSComm ACC cables are designed for multi-vendor interoperability and can be ordered with selectable coding options to match different platforms. They integrate smoothly with common switch and NIC ecosystems, including:
Cisco, Huawei, Juniper, Arista, Dell, H3C, NVIDIA/Mellanox (Ethernet), Extreme, Intel, and more.

Product Range
This collection covers mainstream short-reach copper links and a practical breakout option:
1. 10G SFP+ ACC (up to 10m)
A reliable choice for server uplinks, access-to-aggregation links, and general 10G short runs.
2. 25G SFP28 ACC (up to 9m)
Built for high-density server-to-ToR connections and modern 25G data center access layers.
3. 40G QSFP+ ACC (up to 10m)
Used for switch-to-switch links in ToR/leaf environments and legacy 40G interconnects.
4. 40G QSFP+ to 4×10G SFP+ Breakout ACC (up to 9m)
Perfect when you need to fan out one 40G port into four 10G ports-common for migration projects and port expansion.
5. 50G SFP56 ACC (up to 7m)
Designed for 50G server uplinks and next-gen ToR deployments where you want more bandwidth without changing the physical footprint.
Key Benefits
-
Ultra-low latency: Direct electrical connection with no optical conversion.
-
Cost-effective: Fewer components than optics + fiber patching.
-
Clean cabling: Plug-and-play assemblies reduce install time and failure points.
-
Short-reach optimized: Ideal for in-rack and adjacent-rack links.
-
Upgrade-friendly: Breakout option supports 40G-to-4×10G transitions.
-
Multi-vendor ready: Selectable coding options for common switch/NIC platforms.
Buying Guide
-
Match the speed to the port:
-
10G for access and legacy uplinks
-
25G for server-to-ToR mainstream data centers
-
40G for legacy ToR/leaf interconnects or 10G fanout
-
50G for newer server uplinks and higher-density racks
-
-
Choose the interface: SFP+ / SFP28 / QSFP+ / SFP56 based on your hardware.
-
Decide straight vs breakout: Use breakout when a single 40G port must connect to four 10G devices.
-
Plan the run: ACC is best for within a rack or to the next rack, keeping cabling short and tidy.
-
Get expert support: Share your switch/NIC models and topology-our certified engineers can confirm compatibility and best-fit lengths.
Conclusion
The 10G/25G/40G/50G Active Direct Attach Copper Cable Collection delivers practical, plug-and-play connectivity for short-reach links in enterprise networks and data centers. With multi-vendor options, ultra-low latency, and a breakout solution for 40G-to-10G transitions, NSComm ACC cables help you build cleaner, faster, and more cost-efficient rack connectivity.
