Cabo ótico ativo CBO SFP28-AOC-3M 3 m SFP28 AOC duplex para ligações de 25Gb/s

CBO SFP28-AOC-3M is a 3 meter active optical cable with SFP28 connectors engineered for 25Gb/s data links. The cable integrates optical transceivers within its SFP28 housings to provide a direct fiber connection between compatible SFP28 ports on switches, network interface cards and servers. Built for short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnects, this duplex AOC offers low latency and reduced power consumption compared with separate transceiver plus fiber patch solutions.

Advantages

The active optical construction eliminates the need for separate transceivers and external fiber patch cords, simplifying installation and reducing equipment footprint. The built-in SFP28 connectors ensure plug-and-play compatibility with devices that accept standard SFP28 modules. The duplex fiber design supports full 25Gb/s links with low electromagnetic interference and stable signal integrity over the specified 3 m reach. Energy-efficient operation and compact form factor make the cable suitable for dense rack environments.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 25Gb/s interconnects between switches
• Direct connections from servers to top-of-rack or leaf switches
• High-density patching in data center and enterprise racks
• Low-latency links for storage and compute clusters

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 duplex (integrated active transceivers)
• Data rate: 25 Gigabits per second (per duplex link)
• Length: 3 meters
• Medium: optical fiber (active optical cable)
• Typical reach: optimized for short-reach connections within racks or between adjacent racks
• Power: low-power active design compared with separate transceiver solutions
• Compatibility: designed for equipment accepting standard SFP28 modules

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port on network equipment until it latches; no separate transceiver installation or fiber patching is required. Ensure both ends are seated in compatible SFP28 ports and that connected devices are configured for 25Gb/s operation. Check link status LEDs on connected devices to verify the link is active and monitor interface settings in the device management interface. For secure handling, avoid excessive bending or pulling on the cable and keep connector dust caps in place until installation.

Recommendations

Use the Active Optical Cable within its intended 3 m range inside racks or between adjacent racks to maintain low latency and signal integrity; avoid tight bends and protect connectors from dust. Confirm device compatibility with SFP28 modules and update firmware or driver settings if necessary to ensure stable 25Gb/s operation.
