Cabo ótico ativo CBO AOC SFP28 BlueOptics BO272703Q50M 50 m para portas SFP28 de 25Gb/s

Active optical cable CBO BlueOptics BO272703Q50M is a 50 m factory-terminated AOC with SFP28 connectors engineered for 25Gb/s network interfaces. The cable combines fiber-optic transmission with SFP28 form-factor connectivity to provide low-latency, electromagnetic-interference immune links between switches, servers and storage equipment. The single assembly removes the need for separate transceivers and patch cords, reducing cabling bulk and simplifying high-density deployments in data center racks and network closets.

Advantages

The AOC delivers consistent 25Gb/s performance over 50 meters with reduced power consumption compared to optical transceiver plus patch-cord combinations. Its factory termination and integrated connectors ensure predictable signal integrity and compliance with SFP28 mechanical requirements. Because the connection is optical, the cable is immune to EMI and crosstalk, improving reliability in environments with high electrical noise. The thin, flexible design simplifies routing in crowded racks and helps maintain airflow.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch uplinks in data centers
• Inter-switch connections inside racks and between adjacent racks
• Storage area network (SAN) links requiring 25Gb/s bandwidth
• Short-reach optical connections where reduced cabling bulk is desired

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 to SFP28 (factory-terminated active optical cable)
• Supported data rate: 25 Gigabit per second per lane
• Length: 50 meters
• Transmission medium: active multimode optical cable with integrated transceiver electronics
• Signal characteristics: low latency, immune to electromagnetic interference
• Physical attributes: thin, flexible jacket suitable for high-density cabling

How to use

Install the AOC by inserting each SFP28 connector into compatible SFP28 ports on the devices to be interconnected. Ensure devices are powered down or follow hot-swap guidelines provided by your equipment vendor when inserting or removing SFP28 modules. Verify link status and speed through switch or server management interfaces and confirm the port negotiates at 25Gb/s. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius to preserve optical performance.

Recommendations

Use this 50 m active optical cable for short-reach connections inside and between racks where 25Gb/s links are required. Avoid tight bundling or kinking, and keep connectors free of dust; use dust caps when the cable is not connected. Confirm compatibility with your hardware vendor’s supported SFP28 AOC list to ensure full functionality and management features.
