Cabo ótico ativo CBO SFP28-AOC-30M 30 m SFP28 AOC para ligações de 25 Gb/s

The Active Optical Cable CBO SFP28-AOC-30M is a 30-meter SFP28 AOC engineered for 25 Gb/s connections in data center and high-speed LAN environments. This plug-and-play optical link integrates SFP28 connectors with a factory-terminated multimode optical assembly to enable short- to medium-reach interconnects between switches, servers and network interface cards. The cable reduces electromagnetic interference and offers lower latency compared with equivalent copper direct-attach solutions, providing a reliable optical path for high-throughput traffic.

Advantages

This SFP28 AOC supports 25 Gb/s transmission over a 30 m range while maintaining signal integrity and minimal insertion loss. The cable’s active optics reduce power consumption compared with some transceiver-based alternatives and remove the need for separate transceivers on both ends. Its compact SFP28 form factor ensures compatibility with ports designed for SFP28 modules and enables convenient, tool-free installation. The optical design minimizes susceptibility to EMI and crosstalk, making it suitable for dense rack deployments in modern data centers.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch links in rack and row consolidation
• Switch-to-switch connections within the same room or data hall
• High-performance network interface card (NIC) connections
• Top-of-rack and end-of-row cabling in data center environments

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 on both ends
• Data rate: up to 25 Gb/s
• Length: 30 meters
• Cable type: active optical cable (AOC) with integrated transceiver electronics
• Typical application: short- to medium-reach interconnects
• Benefits: low latency, reduced electromagnetic interference, plug-and-play operation

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port on the networking devices until the module latches. Confirm link status using the device LEDs or management interface; no separate transceivers or manual fibre termination are required. For removal, depress the latch and pull the module straight out. Handle the cable by its connector housing and avoid bending the optical assembly near the connector beyond the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to maintain optical performance.

Recommendations

Install the cable in clean rack environments and route it to avoid sharp bends, pinch points and proximity to strong electrical noise sources. Verify device compatibility with SFP28 AOC modules and ensure firmware or OS drivers support direct-attach AOC links. For best performance, use in controlled-temperature data center spaces and inspect connectors for dust or contamination before insertion.
