BlueOptics XXVAOCBL5M-BO InfiniBand-kuituvalokaapeli 5 m SFP28 aqua

The BlueOptics XXVAOCBL5M-BO InfiniBand Fibre Optic Cable 5m SFP28 Aqua is a 5‑meter active optical cable (AOC) with SFP28 connectors on both ends. Designed to support 25G data rates over multimode fiber, this pre‑assembled aqua-colored cable provides a direct optical link for switches, routers and storage systems that accept SFP28 AOC modules. The cable integrates transmitter and receiver modules on each end and follows MSA-defined SFP28 AOC form-factor and interfaces for electrical, mechanical and functional interoperability.

Advantages

The cable supports up to 25 Gbit/s on a 5 m link and is suitable for Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet and similar high‑speed protocols. As an active optical cable, it is immune to electromagnetic interference and eliminates the need for patching between transceiver modules, which simplifies installation and reduces insertion loss. Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) is supported where host hardware provides access, enabling real‑time monitoring of voltage, temperature, laser bias and optical power. The pre-assembled design and color coding aid cable management in dense data center environments.

Key specifications

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector into an SFP28‑compatible port on the devices to be connected, ensuring the host ports support SFP28 AOC modules. Secure the latching mechanism on both ends and verify link status on the connected equipment. If the host system exposes DDM/DOM, monitor the diagnostic parameters through the device management interface to confirm proper operation and optical link health. No additional patching or fiber termination is required because the cable is factory assembled and pre‑aligned.

Recommendations

Use the BlueOptics 5m SFP28 AOC for short‑reach interconnects inside racks or between adjacent racks. Ensure the receiving hardware officially supports SFP28 AOCs and that firmware or drivers allow third‑party modules if required. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain, and verify DDM readings after installation to confirm expected optical power and temperature.
