CBO actieve optische kabel SFP-25G-D-AOC-10M-DT 25G 10m

The CBO Active Optical Cable SFP-25G-D-AOC-10M-DT 25G 10m is a factory-terminated, fixed-length active optical assembly that provides a 25 Gigabit per second direct connection over 10 metres. Built for SFP28 ports, this AOC integrates the optical transceivers and multimode fibre within a single cable assembly to replace separate transceivers and patch cords. The design is intended for short-reach, low-latency links in environments such as data centre uplinks, switch-to-switch connections and server interconnects where reliable 25G performance is required.

Advantages

This active optical cable delivers consistent 25G throughput with reduced signal loss compared to copper DAC options, while offering lower power consumption than discrete transceiver plus patch-cord combinations. The fixed 10 m length simplifies cable management and reduces connector points, lowering the risk of link failures. Hot-pluggable SFP28 compatibility ensures straightforward installation into compatible ports without additional configuration or optical cleaning steps.

Suitable for

• Data centre uplinks between switches and aggregation devices
• Server-to-switch connections in rack and row deployments
• Short-reach interconnects in high-density networking racks
• Low-latency links for storage and compute clusters

Key specifications

• Nominal data rate: 25 Gbit/s
• Cable type: active optical cable (factory-terminated AOC)
• Connector interface: SFP28 form-factor plug compatible with SFP ports
• Fixed length: 10 metres
• Typical reach: designed for short-reach connections within racks and across adjacent racks
• Latency: low, suitable for latency-sensitive applications
• Power consumption: lower than comparable discrete transceiver plus patch-cord assemblies

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector end into the corresponding SFP-compatible port on network equipment until the latch engages. Use one continuous 10 m run between devices; avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for fibre assemblies. No external transceivers or separate patch cords are required. After installation, verify link status through the connected devices and monitor for expected 25G operation using standard network diagnostic tools.
