Cabo ótico ativo CBO AOC SFP28 BlueOptics BO272703Q50M 50m, SFP28, 50 m

The CBO AOC SFP28 BlueOptics BO272703Q50M is a 50 m active optical cable with SFP28 connectors designed for 25 Gbps links. It provides a low-latency optical connection between compatible SFP28 ports, enabling reliable high-speed interconnects in data centers and enterprise networking environments. The cable is intended for short to mid-range optical links where electrical DACs are impractical or where optical isolation and EMI immunity are required.

Advantages

This active optical cable supports 25 Gbps signaling over a 50 m distance while maintaining low latency and stable signal integrity. With SFP28 form-factor connectors it is hot-pluggable and compatible with devices that accept SFP28 optics, offering a compact and cost-effective alternative to separate transceiver plus fiber assemblies. The optical medium reduces susceptibility to electromagnetic interference and removes the weight and bulk associated with copper direct-attach cables for similar lengths.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch connections in data center racks
• Switch-to-switch or leaf-to-spine interconnects up to 50 m
• Rack-to-rack cabling where a 25 Gbps optical link is required
• Environments requiring EMI immunity and optical isolation

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 on both ends
• Length: 50 meters
• Supported data rate: 25 Gbps (per link)
• Cable type: active optical cable (AOC)
• Form factor: SFP28-compatible
• Typical use: short- to mid-range data center interconnect

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port on your network devices until the latch clicks. Ensure devices are powered and configured for 25 Gbps operation and that firmware or OS drivers support SFP28 AOC modules. Avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress along the cable run; secure the cable along rack paths using appropriate cable management to prevent strain on connectors. When removing the cable, depress the latch and pull the connector straight out to avoid damage.

Recommendations

Verify device compatibility with SFP28 active optical cables before deployment, and follow vendor guidelines for supported transceivers and AOC modules. Keep cable bend radius within manufacturer-recommended limits and route away from sources of mechanical wear. For critical links, monitor link status and error counters after installation to confirm stable 25 Gbps operation.
