Cabo ótico ativo CBO SFP28-AOC-5M 5 m SFP28 AOC para ligações 25GbE

Active Optical Cable CBO SFP28-AOC-5M is a 5 m SFP28 AOC designed for 25GbE connections between compatible SFP28 ports. The single-cable solution integrates optical transceivers and fiber in a lightweight assembly, providing a low-power, low-latency optical link for short-reach data center and rack-to-rack interconnects. This SFP28 AOC is intended for use with servers, switches and storage devices that accept SFP28 modules, simplifying installation by eliminating separate transceivers and reducing cabling density in dense rack environments.

Advantages

The SFP28 AOC offers predictable optical performance and reduced power consumption compared with discrete transceiver plus fiber assemblies, while minimizing the number of field-terminated connections. Its fixed 5 m length provides a ready-made, low-attenuation link suitable for short-reach top-of-rack and adjacent-rack connections. The integrated cable and plug design lowers installation time and risk of connector mismatch and supports hot-pluggable operation in compatible ports.

Suitable for

• 25 Gigabit Ethernet server-to-switch links in data centers
• Top-of-rack (ToR) and adjacent rack interconnects
• High-density switch port consolidation and storage networking

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP28 plug-to-plug AOC
• Data rate: 25 Gb/s per channel (25GbE)
• Length: 5 meters
• Transmission medium: integrated multimode optical cable with active transceiver ends
• Power consumption: low-power active optical solution (typical power depends on host platform)
• Latency: low, suitable for short-reach interconnects
• Compatibility: designed for systems with SFP28 ports supporting 25GbE

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port on the two devices until the module latches. Ensure both devices are powered and that the host ports are configured for 25GbE operation if required. No external transceivers or separate fiber patching are needed. After insertion, verify link status through the host device interface or management software and confirm appropriate link speed and error counters. For removal, release the latch mechanism and pull the connector straight out to avoid stressing the cable assemblies.

Recommendations

Use the 5 m Active Optical Cable for short-reach data center links where SFP28 ports are available. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force on the cable; follow host vendor guidelines for handling SFP28 AOCs. Ensure firmware and driver compatibility on host devices when deploying at 25GbE speed.
