Cabo ótico ativo CBO SFP28-AOC-50M 50 m SFP28 AOC para ligações 25Gb/s

The Active Optical Cable CBO SFP28-AOC-50M is a factory-terminated 50 metre SFP28 AOC engineered for 25Gb/s links. It integrates SFP28 connectors with an optical fibre cable to provide a single, low-latency link between compatible SFP28 ports on switches, servers and storage systems. By combining transceiver functionality and fibre into one assembly, the cable simplifies rack-to-rack and high-density data centre interconnects while reducing the need for separate transceivers and patch cords.

Advantages

This 50 m active optical cable offers predictable signal integrity for 25Gb/s connections and reduces installation time through its plug-and-play factory termination. The integrated design lowers port occupation and cabling complexity in dense server racks and switch clusters. Low latency and consistent optical performance make the cable suitable for time-sensitive data centre traffic, while optical transmission removes concerns about electromagnetic interference and long copper runs.

Suitable for

• Rack-to-rack interconnects in data centres
• Direct connections between top-of-rack switches and leaf or spine switches
• High-density switch-to-server links where SFP28 ports are available
• Short- to medium-distance optical links inside equipment rooms and server halls

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 on both ends
• Maximum data rate: 25 Gigabit per second per channel
• Cable type: Active optical fibre assembly
• Length: 50 metres
• Latency: low, suitable for latency-sensitive applications
• Installation: factory-terminated, plug-and-play
• EMI immunity: optical transmission avoids electromagnetic interference

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port on your switches, servers or storage devices until the latch engages. Verify link negotiation and speed settings on the devices to ensure a 25Gb/s connection. No additional transceivers or fibre patch cables are required; the assembly arrives factory-terminated and ready for immediate deployment. For routine maintenance, power down or hot-swap according to your equipment manufacturer’s guidelines to avoid port damage.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Keep connector dust caps in place until installation and store spare cables in protective coils. Confirm compatibility of SFP28 ports and firmware support on both endpoints prior to large-scale deployment.
