Connect Nearby High-Speed Network Ports with One Cable
The TP-Link SM9220-1M is a 1M passive direct attach cable for short links within a rack or between adjacent racks. A QSFP28 connector at each end provides a compact connection for compatible 100G ports, with 40G operation supported where the host interfaces allow it.
Highlights
High-speed rack connections
- Supports 100 Gbps and 40 Gbps data rates.
- QSFP28 connector at each end.
Simple passive construction
- 1M twinax copper cable assembly.
- No separate optical transceivers or fibre patch lead required.
Installation essentials
- Hot-swappable connectors.
- 33 mm minimum bend radius.
Key Features
Match both network ports
Use compatible 100G QSFP28 ports, or supported 40G QSFP+ ports configured for a common speed. Check the host equipment compatibility list before installation.
Keep short links compact
The 1M assembly is intended for nearby equipment. Measure the complete routing path and provide sufficient clearance for connectors and removal tabs.
Use a passive copper path
The twinax assembly combines cable and connectors in one item. Silver-plated copper conductors and 30 AWG construction are specified by the manufacturer.
Respect the bend radius
Maintain a minimum bend radius of 33 mm and avoid cable strain at either connector. Hot-swappable installation is supported by the cable; follow the host equipment procedure.
Summary
SM9220-1M suits short, compatible 100G or 40G rack connections where a 1M passive copper assembly provides the required reach.
TP-Link SM9220-1M Omada 100G QSFP28 Direct Attach Cable 1M
The TP-Link SM9220-1M is a 1M passive twinax direct attach cable with a QSFP28 connector at each end. It supports 100 Gbps and 40 Gbps operation when both connected devices support the selected mode and cable. The assembly is intended for short rack connections and uses silver-plated copper conductors. Plan the route around the 33 mm minimum bend radius and confirm host compatibility before installation.
