BlueOptics UACC-AOC-SFP28-50M-BO InfiniBand glasvezelkabel 50m SFP28 male

The BlueOptics UACC-AOC-SFP28-50M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 50m SFP28 Male is an active optical cable (AOC) designed for short-reach, high-speed interconnects. With SFP28 male connectors on both ends and a 50 meter multi-mode fibre link, this cable follows MSA SFP28 form-factor standards and supports 25G data rates suitable for data centre and networking environments. The integrated transmitter and receiver modules on each end convert electrical signals to optical signals and back, enabling low-latency, high-bandwidth links between compatible devices.

Advantages

This AOC provides a compact, lightweight alternative to direct-attach copper or transceiver-plus-patch-fibre assemblies, reducing rack clutter and simplifying cabling. It supports 25GBASE-SR4 class applications over multimode fibre and is compatible with devices that accept SFP28 MSA modules, enabling reliable high-speed connectivity across a 50 m link. The pre-terminated nature of the cable removes the need for separate transceivers and patch leads, easing installation and maintenance.

Key specifications

How to use

Plug the SFP28 connectors into compatible SFP28 ports on the devices to be connected, ensuring devices are powered down or support hot-plugging per the equipment manufacturer’s guidance. Verify port configuration and speed settings on both ends, and confirm link status through the device management interface. No additional transceivers or patch cables are required, as the cable is factory-terminated and ready for immediate deployment.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius for multimode fibre. Use cable management to prevent strain on the connectors and keep connectors dust-free when not in use. Confirm device compatibility with SFP28 AOC modules and supported protocols before installation and test the link after deployment to ensure expected throughput and link stability.
