BlueOptics SFP-25G-C5M-BL cavo in fibra ottica InfiniBand 5 m SFP28 maschio/maschio

BlueOptics SFP-25G-C5M-BL is a 5 m SFP28-to-SFP28 direct attach cable (DAC) designed for short-range high-speed connections in racks and between adjacent racks. This passive 25GBase-CR twinax copper cable supports up to 25 Gbit/s on a 5 meter link and is MSA-compliant for use in hardware platforms that support the original Alcatel‑Lucent SFP-25G-C5M module.

Advantages

The cable offers low power consumption (approximately 0.1 W), low latency and simple passive design that results in a low failure rate. Manufactured with components that follow MSA standards, the product provides stable signal transfer for Ethernet, FCoE, Fibre Channel and InfiniBand applications up to 25G. Its construction uses high-quality parts from established suppliers to ensure long service life.

Suitable for

• Short-distance rack-to-rack connections in data centres
• Switch-to-switch and switch-to-server links with SFP28 ports
• Storage systems and SAN environments using Fibre Channel or FCoE
• InfiniBand interconnects that support 25G electrical links

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 (male) to SFP28 (male)
• Length: 5 meters
• Data rate: up to 25 Gbit/s
• Type: passive twinax copper, 30 AWG
• Standard: 25GBase-CR, MSA compliant

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port on the devices to be linked (switch, router, server or storage). Ensure both devices support passive 25GBase-CR DACs and the required transmission protocol. No external power or transceiver configuration is required beyond verifying compatibility in the device software/firmware.

Recommendations

Confirm hardware compatibility with the device vendor or product datasheet before deployment. For optimal performance, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and electromagnetic interference; store and handle the cable according to standard twinax handling practices.
