Cabo ótico ativo AOC CBO SFP28-AOC-2M 2 m para portas SFP28

The AOC CBO SFP28-AOC-2M 2 m Active Optical Cable for SFP28 ports is a factory-terminated optical interconnect designed for short-reach 25GbE links. This 2-meter AOC delivers a low-latency, high-bandwidth connection between SFP28 ports on switches, servers and storage devices. The plug-and-play form factor eliminates the need for separate transceivers and reduces cabling complexity and susceptibility to electromagnetic interference in data center environments.

Advantages

This active optical cable provides a lightweight, flexible link with consistent signal integrity across its length. Because it is factory-terminated for SFP28 ports, installation is simplified—no field termination or additional modules are required. The optical medium minimizes crosstalk and EMI issues common with copper cabling and supports stable 25GbE throughput with low latency, making it suitable for densely cabled racks and high-performance network topologies.

Suitable for

• Short-reach data center links between switches and aggregation devices
• Direct connections between servers and top-of-rack switches
• High-speed storage area network (SAN) interconnects on SFP28 ports
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is required

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28-compatible active optical ends
• Cable length: 2 meters
• Data rate: supports 25 Gigabit Ethernet links
• Latency: low-latency optical transmission suitable for high-performance networking
• Form factor: factory-terminated, plug-and-play module-style cable
• Optical medium: active fiber with integrated transceiver electronics

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector end into the SFP28 port on the devices to be connected, ensuring the latch engages. After insertion, connected devices should automatically recognize the link and negotiate to the supported 25GbE rate if compatible. No additional transceivers, patch panels, or fiber termination are required. Handle the cable by the connector housing and avoid sharp bends near the ends; follow normal ESD precautions when working inside equipment racks.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use this 2 m AOC within the intended short-reach distances in data center racks and patching paths. Maintain bend radii recommended by equipment vendors, avoid excessive tension on the cable, and verify device firmware and compatibility lists if using vendor-restricted SFP modules. Store and route the cable to minimize mechanical stress and exposure to sources of physical damage.
