Aktívny optický kábel CBO SFP28-AOC-10M pre 10m SFP28 pripojenia

Active Optical Cable CBO SFP28-AOC-10M for 10m SFP28 connections is a pre-terminated, factory-tested optical link designed for 25Gb/s short-reach interconnects. The cable integrates SFP28 connectors with a fiber optic assembly to provide a plug-and-play connection between network devices with SFP28 ports, eliminating the need for separate transceiver modules. Its 10-metre length balances reach and signal integrity for typical data center topologies, while the lightweight cable construction reduces strain on racks and minimizes electromagnetic interference compared with copper options.

Advantages

This Active Optical Cable delivers 25Gb/s data rates with low latency and stable signal performance suitable for high-density environments. The integrated SFP28 form factor simplifies installation and inventory management by removing separate transceivers. Optical transmission reduces electromagnetic interference and heat dissipation versus copper cables, and the lighter, thinner cable improves airflow in racks. The factory-terminated design ensures consistent optical alignment and compatibility with devices supporting SFP28 AOC links.

Suitable for

• 25G direct links between switches and routers in data centers
• Connections between servers and top-of-rack switches
• High-density switch-to-switch aggregation
• Short-reach interconnects in server rooms and equipment closets

Key specifications

• Data rate: 25 Gigabits per second (25Gb/s)
• Connector type: SFP28 integrated transceiver form-factor
• Length: 10 metres
• Transmission medium: multimode optical fiber within an active optical assembly
• Latency: low, suitable for low-latency networking applications
• Operation: plug-and-play, hot-pluggable in SFP28 ports

How to use

Install the Active Optical Cable by inserting each SFP28 connector into the corresponding device ports until the latch engages. No separate transceiver configuration is required in most systems; the link will establish automatically when both devices support SFP28 AOC connections. Route the 10-metre cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it to maintain airflow and cable management standards. For initial verification, check link status LEDs on connected devices and use standard network diagnostics to confirm 25Gb/s operation.

Recommendations

Use the cable in environments where SFP28-compatible ports are supported and where a 10-metre reach meets topology needs. Avoid tight bends below the manufacturer-recommended bend radius and protect connectors from dust when not in use. Validate compatibility with device firmware and vendor interoperability notes if equipment enforces vendor lock or specific transceiver restrictions.
