AOC CBO SFP-25G-D-AOC-7M-DG cavo ottico attivo 25Gbps, 7 m

The AOC SFP-25G-D-AOC-7M-DG Active Optical Cable delivers 25 Gbps data transfer over a 7-meter duplex multimode fiber link designed for use with SFP+ or compatible 25G ports. This fiber-based active cable combines transceiver electronics and optical fiber in a single assembly to provide a compact, low-latency interconnect that reduces electrical signal loss and electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives. It is intended for short-range interconnections in data centers, server racks and network equipment where predictable 25G links are required.

Advantages

The integrated design eliminates the need for separate transceivers and fiber patch cables while maintaining energy-efficient operation and thermal stability. Optical transmission over the 7 m duplex link supports consistent 25 Gbps performance with low insertion loss and minimal crosstalk. The cable’s plug-and-play form factor simplifies installation and replacement, and its passive fiber structure reduces weight and bulk in dense cabling environments.

Suitable for

• Inter-rack and intra-rack switch-to-switch connections
• Server-to-switch uplinks in rack-mounted deployments
• Storage array and top-of-rack aggregation links
• High-performance computing clusters with short-reach 25G requirements

Key specifications

• Data rate: 25 Gbps duplex
• Length: 7 meters duplex optical cable
• Connector type: SFP+ form factor plug-in ends for 25G ports
• Transmission medium: active optical cable with integrated transceiver electronics
• Latency: low-latency optical link suitable for time-sensitive traffic
• Power consumption: energy-efficient operation compared with comparable copper interconnects

How to use

Install the cable by inserting the SFP+ ends into compatible 25G SFP+ or 25G-capable ports on switches, servers or storage devices. Ensure both ends are firmly seated and the devices are powered down or follow hot-plugging procedures recommended by the network equipment vendor. After insertion, verify link status in the device management interface and confirm 25G operation and appropriate optics diagnostics. For reliable operation, avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force on the duplex optical cable.

Recommendations

Use this 7 m active optical cable for short-reach, high-bandwidth links where consistent 25G performance and reduced EMI are important. Follow rack management best practices: maintain bend radius, route cables to minimize strain, and verify compatibility with the transceiver support list of your network equipment.
