BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-25M-SP-BO SFP28 actieve optische kabel, 25 m, stekker-stekker, mint

The BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-25M-SP-BO is an active optical cable with SFP28 connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed 25 Gbit/s links over a 25 m multi-mode optical channel. With male-to-male SFP28 terminations and a mint-coloured jacket, this AOC provides a compact, low-latency connection option for switches, servers and storage devices in data centers and network racks. It integrates the transmitter and receiver into the cable ends to simplify short-reach optical connections between SFP28 network ports.

Advantages

The integrated transceivers in the cable ends eliminate the need for separate transceiver modules, reducing component count and simplifying installation. The 25 m length enables flexible port-to-port connections across racks or within larger chassis environments while maintaining 25 Gbit/s performance. The SFP28 interfaces adhere to common mechanical form-factor expectations, allowing straightforward insertion into compatible SFP28 ports. The mint-coloured jacket helps with visual identification in dense cabling environments.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 25 Gbit/s links between SFP28 ports in data center racks
• Direct connections between switches, servers and storage appliances
• High-density rack deployments requiring compact, integrated optical cabling

Key specifications

• Cable length: 25 m
• Connector type (both ends): SFP28 male-to-male
• Data rate: 25 Gbit/s
• Cable type: active optical cable with integrated Tx/Rx
• Product colour: mint
• Weight: 0.15 kg

How to use

Power is provided through the attached SFP28 ports when the cable is inserted; install by aligning each SFP28 connector with the corresponding port and gently inserting until it seats. Use the cable to link SFP28-capable network ports directly—no external transceivers or additional power supplies are required. Ensure both connected devices support 25 Gbit/s SFP28 AOC connections and follow device vendor guidance for link configuration and port settings.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the specified minimum bend radius to preserve signal integrity. Verify compatibility with your equipment vendors' supported AOC list where applicable and test the link during maintenance windows to confirm expected throughput and latency.
