BlueOptics SFP28 AOC-kabel 25 m — SFP28 naar SFP28, aqua

BlueOptics SFP28 AOC cable 25 m is an active optical cable with SFP28 connectors on both ends and an aqua-coloured jacket. It provides a 25 m multi-mode fibre link for 25 Gbit/s connections between servers, switches and storage devices that support SFP28 ports. The cable is supplied as a male-to-male SFP28 termination and is lightweight, intended for short-reach, high-speed interconnects in rack and data centre environments.

Advantages

The active optical design integrates transmitter and receiver modules in the cable ends to deliver reliable 25 Gbit/s signalling over 25 m without separate transceivers. The aqua jacket and compact SFP28 terminations make the cable easy to route and identify in dense cabling installations. With a low weight and single-cable assembly, it reduces connector density and simplifies replacement compared with separate transceiver-plus-fibre solutions.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP28 connector into compatible SFP28 ports on networking equipment until the latch engages. Ensure both ports support 25 Gbit/s operation and the same signalling standard. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical strain; secure it with appropriate cable management to maintain connector integrity. If replacing an existing link, power down or follow hot-swap guidance from your hardware vendor as required before disconnecting and connecting modules or cables.

Recommendations

Verify device compatibility with SFP28 AOC modules and confirm support for 25G signalling on the intended ports. Use the cable within standard multimode optical reach limits and avoid exceeding recommended bend radii. For high-density deployments, label both ends and maintain proper cable management to preserve airflow and ease maintenance.
