Cabo ótico ativo AOC SFP28 BlueOptics BO272703Q1M 1M CBO SFP28-AOC-1M-MT-BO

AOC SFP28 BlueOptics BO272703Q1M 1M active optical cable CBO SFP28-AOC-1M-MT-BO is a factory-terminated 1-metre SFP28 active optical cable designed for 25 Gigabit Ethernet interconnects. The cable implements a small form-factor SFP28 interface on both ends and provides a low-latency, high-bandwidth optical link for short-reach server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections in data centres and network racks. The pre-terminated, polarity-correct fiber assembly removes the need for field termination and simplifies installation in dense cabling environments.

Advantages

The AOC delivers consistent 25GbE performance with lower power consumption and reduced electromagnetic interference compared to copper direct-attach options. Its active optical design supports reliable signal integrity over the 1-metre span while maintaining a compact SFP28 form factor for hot-pluggable use. Because the cable is factory tested and terminated, it reduces installation time and minimizes the risk of connector faults or mispatching in high-density deployments.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 25GbE server-to-switch links in data centres
• Switch-to-switch connections in top-of-rack or aggregation layers
• High-density rack installations requiring small form-factor transceivers
• Environments where factory-terminated, polarity-correct fiber is preferred

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 on both ends (small form-factor pluggable)
• Nominal length: 1 metre
• Data rate support: 25 Gigabit Ethernet
• Medium: active optical cable (single assembly, factory-terminated)
• Latency: low-latency optical link suitable for data-centre traffic
• Compatibility: designed for SFP28 ports on switches, servers and network adapters

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port on the network devices until it latches. Ensure network equipment is powered down or that hot-plug procedures recommended by the device vendor are followed before insertion or removal. After physical installation, verify link enumeration and speed settings on the connected devices and monitor the interface for correct negotiation at 25GbE. Avoid excessive bending near the connectors and route the cable to prevent strain on the transceiver housings.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short, high-bandwidth links inside racks or between adjacent racks; avoid using it for longer spans beyond its specified length. Maintain minimum bend radii and secure the cable to prevent repeated mechanical stress. Refer to your switch and server vendor documentation for supported SFP28 module behaviour and any required firmware or compatibility advisories.
