SFP28 AOC -kaapeli BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-50M-PS-BO 50 m uros/uros

The BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-50M-PS-BO is a 50 metre active optical cable with SFP28 connectors on both ends, designed for 25G high-speed data transmission over multi-mode fiber. The cable integrates transceivers on each end to send and receive optical signals according to MSA SFP28 AOC specifications and supports protocols such as Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet. With an aqua-coloured jacket and lightweight construction, this AOC is intended for use in data centers and high-performance computing environments where reliable, low-latency links are required.

Advantages

The AOC provides a pre-assembled fiber connection that avoids manual patching and reduces signal loss associated with patch cords. It implements digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) for real-time monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit output power, receive input power and temperature when supported by the host hardware. Manufactured to MSA-compliant mechanical and electrical specifications and assembled from selected optical and electronic components, the cable is intended for extended operational life and consistent performance in high-availability networks.

Suitable for

• 25G links between switches, routers and storage systems in data centers
• High-performance computing clusters requiring low-latency optical interconnects
• Top-of-rack and spine cabling runs up to 50 metres using multi-mode fiber

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP28 to SFP28 active optical cable
• Length: 50 metres
• Data rate support: up to 25 Gbit/s per lane (25GBASE-SR4 application)
• Fiber type: multi-mode fiber with integrated optical transceivers
• Monitoring: Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) compliant with SFF-8472 when supported by host
• Colour: aqua
• Weight: approximately 0.15 kg

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-50M-PS-BO by inserting each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port of the networking devices. Ensure the host devices support SFP28 AOC modules and, if DDM/DOM is required, verify that the system firmware exposes diagnostic parameters. No patch panels or separate transceivers are required — the cable provides an integrated optical link. Handle the cable by the connector bodies and avoid sharp bends to maintain optimal optical performance.

Recommendations

Verify device compatibility and firmware support before deployment, especially for DDM/DOM access. Route the cable to avoid tight bend radii and mechanical strain. Use AOC connections within the specified 50 metre range and within recommended operating temperature limits of the host equipment to ensure stable 25G performance.
