| DAC | Twinaxial | Direct Attach Cable | <5m passive, >5m active | 1G/10G/25G/40G |
| This is not optical. SFP, SFP+, QSFP. | ||||||
| T | Copper | 100m or less, depending on type | 10m/100m/1G/10G/25G/40G |
| This is not optical. Will often have speed in model#, such as 10BASE, 100BASE, 1000base, 10/100/1000BASE. 10G has a limited distance depending on cable type. | |||||||
