SFP28-kabel CBO JL297A-BO 5 m — CBO SFP28 5M netwerkkabel

The SFP28 Cable CBO JL297A-BO 5 m — CBO SFP28 5M network cable is a fixed-length copper connection designed for SFP28 ports and 25Gbps links. This 5-meter cable provides a direct, low-latency physical link between compatible network devices such as switches, servers and transceivers in data centers and enterprise racks. Its compact form is intended for short-reach applications where stable high-speed connectivity is required without the complexity of active transceivers or fiber patching.

Advantages

This SFP28 cable delivers consistent 25Gbps signal performance with minimal insertion loss, offering a reliable, low-latency alternative to fiber for short interconnects. As a fixed-length assembly, it simplifies inventory and deployment compared with modular cable assemblies. The cable is suitable for high-density rack environments due to its compact connector design and predictable electrical characteristics that reduce signal reflections and crosstalk in short-reach topologies.

Suitable for

• Connecting SFP28 ports on switches and servers within the same rack or adjacent racks
• Short-reach 25GbE interconnects in data centers and server rooms
• Direct-attached connections to transceivers and breakout panels
• High-density networking scenarios where fixed-length, low-latency links are required

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28-compatible fixed assembly
• Nominal data rate: 25 Gbps
• Length: 5 meters
• Cable medium: copper direct-attach (fixed) suitable for short-reach links
• Typical use: short-distance rack-to-rack or within-rack interconnects
• Latency: optimized for low-latency direct connections

How to use

Insert each end of the SFP28 cable into compatible SFP28 ports until the connectors latch securely. Ensure both devices support 25GbE SFP28 direct-attach connections and that link settings on switches or servers are configured for the desired speed and duplex. Avoid excessive bending near the connectors and route the cable to prevent strain on ports. For multiple connections, label both ends to simplify identification during maintenance.

Recommendations

Use this 5 m SFP28 cable for short-distance, high-speed interconnects inside racks or between adjacent racks. Confirm device compatibility with copper direct-attach SFP28 links before deployment and follow vendor guidance for maximum bend radius and port handling to maintain signal integrity and connector longevity.
