Models, Specifications, And Compatibility - HPE Aruba QSFP28 Manual

IMPORTANT:
Direct Attach over Copper (DAC) cables have a minimum bend radius of typically 4x the
diameter of the cable (approximately a 1" bend radius). Handle DAC cables carefully to ensure
that you do not crimp or bend the cable beyond a 1" radius. Otherwise, you risk damaging the
cable.
