BlueOptics JH955A-BO InfiniBand-glasvezelkabel 3 m SFP28 aqua

The BlueOptics JH955A-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 3 m SFP28 Aqua is a 3-meter active optical cable (AOC) with SFP28 connectors designed for high-speed short-reach links in data centers and networking environments. It provides bidirectional optical transmission over multimode fiber and complies with MSA SFP28 physical interface standards, supporting data rates up to 25 Gbps per channel. The pre-assembled AOC integrates transmitter and receiver modules on each end to deliver a ready-to-use fibre connection without the need for separate transceivers or patching.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC is engineered for compatibility with major hardware platforms that accept SFP28 AOCs, providing plug-and-play connectivity and eliminating the need to terminate or clean patch cords. The multimode optical design reduces susceptibility to electromagnetic interference and supports low-latency, high-throughput links. Built with industry-grade optoelectronic components and tested for compatibility, the cable offers predictable performance for short-reach interconnects.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links in data centers
• High-speed storage and SAN connections using Fibre Channel over Ethernet
• Short-reach InfiniBand and 25GBASE-SR4 applications within racks or across adjacent racks
• Environments requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth optical links immune to EMI

Key specifications

• Length: 3 meters
• Connector type: SFP28 to SFP28 (male-to-male)
• Transmission medium: Multimode fibre (Aqua jacket)
• Data rate: Up to 25 Gbps per channel (25GBASE-SR4 compatible)
• Compliance: SFP28 / MSA physical interface standards
• Active Optical Cable with integrated transmitter and receiver modules
• Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support for real-time operating parameters

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 3 m SFP28 AOC by inserting the SFP28 connectors directly into SFP28 ports on compatible switches, routers, or server NICs until the latch engages. Ensure both ends are seated in compatible SFP28 slots and that the host hardware supports active optical cables and the DDM/DOM interface if diagnostics are required. No external power or additional transceivers are necessary. Handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends at the fibre section; follow standard fibre optic handling procedures to maintain link quality.

Recommendations

Verify hardware compatibility and firmware support for SFP28 AOCs before deployment. Use the DDM/DOM feature to monitor supplied voltage, laser bias, transmit/receive power and temperature where supported by the host device. When routing the cable, keep bend radius within manufacturer limits and avoid electromagnetic sources to maintain optimal performance and longevity.
