Cabo ótico ativo CBO SFP28-AOC-10M 10 m cabo de ligação SFP28 para ligações de 25 Gbit/s

The Active Optical Cable CBO SFP28-AOC-10M is a 10-metre SFP28 link cable engineered for 25 Gbps optical connections between devices with SFP28 ports. It provides a fixed-length optical link that reduces electromagnetic interference and eliminates the need for separate transceivers and copper patching. The cable is intended for environments that require low-latency, high-bandwidth links such as data centres, server racks and storage arrays.

Advantages

This SFP28 AOC delivers a reliable 25 Gbps data path over a 10 m optical channel, offering consistent signal integrity and low latency. As an active optical cable, it integrates optical transceivers at both ends which simplifies installation and reduces the number of components in a network rack. The optical medium lowers susceptibility to electromagnetic interference and improves thermal performance compared with equivalent copper assemblies.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between switches and top-of-rack or leaf switches in data centres
• Direct links between servers and storage systems requiring 25 Gbps throughput
• Connections in high-density network environments where fixed-length optical cabling is preferred
• Low-latency links for virtualization, high-performance computing and storage networks

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 form factor on both ends
• Data rate: 25 Gbps per lane
• Length: 10 metres
• Cable type: Active optical cable (integrated optical transceivers)
• Medium: Optical fibre, single-mode or multi-mode compatibility depending on hardware platform
• Typical use: Short to medium reach intra-rack and inter-rack connections

How to use

Install the SFP28-AOC-10M by inserting each SFP28 end into compatible SFP28 ports on network devices until the module latches. Ensure both devices support SFP28 active optical modules and that port firmware settings allow auto-negotiation at 25 Gbps. No external power or separate transceivers are required. Verify link status through device management interfaces and monitor for any alarms or mismatch messages after installation.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the equipment manufacturer. Use appropriate port modules and check compatibility with switch and server vendors to ensure full 25 Gbps operation. Avoid exposing the cable to excessive heat sources and secure it within cable management pathways to prevent strain on connectors.
