- Description
Twinaxial cable, or Twinax, is a superior type of copper cable for high-speed, short-distance data transmission in networking. It contains two inner, balanced conductors, which are twisted and enclosed by a single common shield. This design uses differential signaling to effectively cancel noise and interference, ensuring high data integrity and low latency. Twinax Direct Attach Copper (DAC) assemblies are a highly cost-effective alternative to fiber optics for connecting servers and switches within a rack. They are widely deployed in data centers to support 10G, 25G, 40G, and 100G Ethernet over short runs.
