SFP+ kaapeli BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-25M-LC-BO 25 m uros/uros

The BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-25M-LC-BO is a 25-metre SFP+ active optical cable designed for high-speed 10 Gigabit Ethernet interconnects. With SFP+ male connectors on both ends, this cable provides a ready-made, factory-terminated solution for direct server-to-switch, switch-to-switch or storage-to-switch links where low power, low latency and immunity to electromagnetic interference are required. The single-cable assembly removes the need for separate transceivers and fibre patch leads, simplifying rack and cabling layouts in data center and enterprise network environments.

Advantages

The active optical construction delivers stable 10 Gbps throughput over a 25 m distance while maintaining low insertion loss and high signal integrity. Using SFP+ plugs at both ends ensures plug-and-play compatibility with equipment that accepts SFP+ modules and cages. The cable's optical design reduces electrical interference concerns typical of copper connections and lowers heat generation compared with powered transceiver-plus-cable combinations. Compact and lightweight, the assembly helps reduce cable bulk in dense installations.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplinks between servers and switches
• Switch-to-switch connections within racks or between adjacent racks
• Storage area network (SAN) links requiring low latency
• High-density data centre cabling where transceiver replacement is minimized

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps (SFP+ standard)
• Length: 25 metres
• Connector type: SFP+ male on both ends
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Latency: low, suitable for latency-sensitive applications
• Immunity: not susceptible to electromagnetic interference like copper
• Form factor: compact, lightweight assembly for high-density routing

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ plug into the corresponding SFP+ port until it clicks into place, observing proper orientation and port compatibility. Ensure connected equipment is powered and configured for 10 Gbps operation; in most systems the link will negotiate automatically. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force on the cable; secure cable routing to prevent strain on the connectors. When removing the cable, press the release mechanism on the SFP+ connector before withdrawing to protect the port and plug.

Recommendations

Use this 25 m active optical cable in environmentally controlled network rooms and data centres. Verify equipment vendor compatibility with SFP+ AOC assemblies for full feature support, and maintain bend radius and routing best practices to preserve optical performance and connector longevity.
