BlueOptics SFP28 AOC 25 m Twin SFP28 aktiivinen optinen kaapeli, mintunvärinen

BlueOptics SFP28 AOC 25 m twin SFP28 active optical cable, mint colour is a 25-metre active optical cable (AOC) with SFP28 male connectors on both ends, designed for 25GbE and InfiniBand links. The cable uses integrated optical transceivers to transmit and receive high-speed signals over multimode fiber, providing a lightweight, low-latency connection suitable for data centre and server interconnects. The mint-coloured duplex jacket helps with quick visual identification in dense cabling environments.

Advantages

This SFP28 AOC delivers electrical noise immunity and reduced signal loss compared with equivalent copper direct-attach solutions, while keeping power consumption and weight low. Being an active optical cable with SFP28 form-factor connectors, it simplifies cabling by combining transceiver and cable in one assembly and supports standardized SFP28 interfaces for easy insertion into compatible ports. The 25 m length provides reach for typical rack-to-rack and row-to-row connections without active repeaters.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 25GbE or InfiniBand links between switches and servers
• Data centre rack-to-rack interconnects and server aggregation
• High-speed storage networks and SAN uplinks
• Environments requiring low-latency and immunity to electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Cable length: 25 m
• Connector type: SFP28 to SFP28 (male)
• Supported data rate: up to 25 Gbit/s per channel
• Optical medium: multimode fiber with integrated optical transceivers
• Product colour: mint
• Weight: approximately 0.15 kg

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port of the devices to be linked, ensuring the latch engages securely. No separate transceivers or patch cables are required; the active optical components are built into the cable assembly. Verify that both devices support SFP28 AOC modules and the intended protocol (for example, 25GbE or InfiniBand). After connection, check link status LEDs and device interface configuration to confirm the established link and negotiated speed.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connector housings; avoid tight bends and kinks and observe the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Use mint-coloured cables for organised cabling runs and label both ends if used in complex topologies. Confirm compatibility with the switch or server vendor for guaranteed interoperability and, when possible, test the link under expected traffic conditions before deploying in production.
