BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-10M-LC-BO cavo in fibra ottica InfiniBand 10 m connettore/connettore

The BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-10M-LC-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable is a 10 metre active optical cable (AOC) with SFP28 male connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed short-reach interconnects in data centres and server rooms. It supports 25G per lane transmission over multimode fibre with integrated transmitter and receiver modules at each end and complies with SFP28 AOC MSA standards. The pre-assembled AOC eliminates the need for field splicing or patchcord cleaning and reduces signal attenuation compared with typical patching solutions.

Advantages

The BlueOptics 10m SFP28 AOC provides low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity for 25G applications while remaining immune to electromagnetic interference. It includes digital diagnostics (DDM/DOM) for real-time monitoring of voltage, laser bias current, output and input optical power, and temperature when supported by host hardware. The cable is manufactured to MSA specifications using quality optical and electronic components to ensure interoperability, long lifetime and stable performance in short-range links.

Suitable for

• High-speed connections between switches and top-of-rack (ToR) devices
• Server-to-switch links in data centres and rack environments
• Storage area networks and Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) links
• Short-reach InfiniBand and 25G Ethernet interconnects

Key specifications

• Length: 10 metres
• Connector type: SFP28 male to SFP28 male (LC form-factor on optical interface)
• Type: Active Optical Cable (AOC) with integrated transceivers
• Supported data rate: up to 25 Gbps per lane (25GBASE-SR4 applications)
• Fibre: multimode fibre optimized for short-range transmission
• Digital diagnostics: DDM/DOM monitoring compliant with SFF-8472 (if supported by host)
• Standards and compliance: SFP28 AOC MSA, CE and RoHS compliant

How to use

Insert the SFP28 connectors into compatible SFP28 ports on the devices to be connected, ensuring correct orientation and a secure latch. Verify that the host equipment supports AOC modules and, if you require monitoring, that DDM/DOM is enabled in the hardware. No additional fibre patching or polishing is required because the cable is factory-terminated; handle the cable by the reinforced jacket and avoid tight bends to maintain signal integrity.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, avoid routing the cable near strong heat sources and maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer. Confirm firmware and hardware compatibility with your switch, router or storage system before installation and use the digital diagnostics function to monitor optical parameters and simplify troubleshooting.
