Cabo ótico ativo CBO SFP28-AOC-30M 30 m SFP28 AOC para ligações de 25Gbps

CBO SFP28-AOC-30M is a 30-meter active optical cable with SFP28 connectors engineered for 25Gbps SFP28 ports. The cable delivers a direct fiber link between compatible switches, routers or servers without separate transceivers, providing a low-latency, single-cable solution for short-distance high-speed interconnects in data centers and server racks.

Advantages

The Active Optical Cable CBO SFP28-AOC-30M reduces cabling complexity by integrating optics and connector ends into a single assembly, eliminating the need to install and manage separate transceiver modules. Its 30 m length supports flexible rack-to-rack and shelf-to-shelf connections while maintaining the performance characteristics required for 25Gbps links. The design minimizes signal loss and electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives and offers simplified inventory and lower power consumption at the transceiver level.

Suitable for

• Short-distance 25Gbps interconnects between switches and routers in data centers
• Server-to-switch connections inside racks and between adjacent racks
• High-density network deployments where transceiver-free cabling simplifies management
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference and consistent low-latency links

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 on both ends
• Nominal data rate: 25 Gbps per lane
• Length: 30 meters
• Media: active optical cable (AOC)
• Latency: low-latency optical transmission suitable for high-performance networking
• Compatibility: designed for equipment with SFP28 ports supporting 25Gbps

How to use

Plug each SFP28 connector into the corresponding 25Gbps SFP28 port on your switches, routers or servers until each connector clicks into place. Ensure both devices are powered and configured to enable the 25Gbps interface. No additional transceivers or patch fiber are required; the AOC provides an integrated optical path. Monitor link status via device management interfaces to confirm operational parameters and adjust port settings if auto-negotiation or manual configuration is needed.

Recommendations

Route the cable with gentle bends and avoid sharp kinks; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to prevent damage. Keep connectors free of dust and handle ends by the connector housings. Use the 30 m length for rack-to-rack or adjacent row connections within the same data center room, and verify compatibility with your switch or server vendor when operating under vendor-specific link diagnostics.
