SFP28 AOC -kaapeli BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-5M-BO 5 m aqua uros/uros

The BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-5M-BO is a 5 meter active optical cable with SFP28 male connectors at both ends designed for 25G multi‑mode optical links. Built to MSA SFP28 form factor standards, this Aqua-coloured AOC provides a pre‑terminated fiber connection that supports high-speed applications such as 25G Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet. The integrated transmitter and receiver modules on each side convert electrical signals to optical and back, delivering low-latency data transfer without the need for separate transceivers or patching.

Advantages

The cable supports 25GBASE-SR4 multi‑mode transmission over a 5 m link, offering reduced electromagnetic interference compared with copper solutions and consistent signal integrity across short data center runs. Preassembled connectors eliminate patch cord attenuation and cleaning steps, while built‑in Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) provides real‑time telemetry for voltage, temperature, laser bias and optical power to assist maintenance and troubleshooting. The lightweight design and Aqua colour make cable management and identification straightforward in dense rack environments.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-5M-BO by inserting each SFP28 connector into corresponding SFP28 ports on the devices to be connected while the devices are powered down or under hot-swappable conditions if supported by the hardware. Verify link negotiation and port status via the device network management interface. If DDM/DOM is supported by the host, monitor telemetry values for voltage, temperature and optical power to confirm healthy operation. Avoid bending the cable beyond recommended bend radii and route it to minimize mechanical stress.

Recommendations

Use this 5 m AOC for short-reach 25G links inside racks or between adjacent racks. Confirm that your switch, router or storage platform supports SFP28 modules and DDM/DOM if you plan to use diagnostic features. Store and handle the cable to prevent sharp bends and keep connectors capped when not in use to maintain optimal performance.
