Cavo AOC SFP28 BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-10M-CP-BO 10m connettore maschio/connettore maschio

The BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-10M-CP-BO is a 10-metre Active Optical Cable (AOC) with SFP28 connectors on both ends, designed for 25G high-speed links in data centres and server environments. The cable implements SFP28 to SFP28 connectivity according to MSA guidelines and supports simultaneous transmit and receive optical channels over multimode fibre. It is intended for deployments that require low latency, reliable optical interconnects without field termination or patching.

Advantages

This AOC provides a factory-assembled optical connection that reduces insertion and maintenance work compared with patchcords and transceivers with separate fibre. It supports 25G data rates and Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time monitoring of key optical parameters. Manufactured to MSA-compliant mechanical and electrical specifications, the cable is compatible with SFP28 ports and is built using high-quality optical and electronic components for extended operational lifetime and consistent performance.

Suitable for

• Top-of-rack and spine switch interconnects in data centres
• Direct connections between servers, switches and storage systems
• High-performance computing clusters requiring low-latency links
• Short-reach 25G Ethernet or Fibre Channel over Ethernet connections up to 10 m

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 to SFP28 (male/male)
• Length: 10 metres
• Data rate: up to 25 Gbit/s per channel
• Media type: multimode fibre (active optical cable with integrated transceivers)
• Standards compliance: SFP28 AOC MSA and 25GBASE-SR4-compatible operation
• Monitoring: supports Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) per SFF-8472
• EMI immunity: fibre-optic transmission not susceptible to electromagnetic interference

How to use

Insert the SFP28 modules on each end of the AOC into compatible SFP28 sockets on network devices until the retention latch engages. Ensure both devices support 25G SFP28 AOC modules and, if monitoring is required, that the host hardware exposes DDM/DOM information. No field termination or fibre patching is necessary; route the pre-assembled cable to avoid tight bends and secure it to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Avoid sharp bends and excessive tensile force on the cable; maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer. Verify device compatibility and DDM support before deployment and perform a link test after installation to confirm expected throughput and optical parameters.
