SFP-25G-D-AOC-10M-H-BO BlueOptics InfiniBand fibre optic cable 10m SFP28 Male

The BlueOptics SFP-25G-D-AOC-10M-H-BO is a 10-meter active optical cable (AOC) with SFP28 male connectors at both ends. Designed for 25GBASE-SR4 applications over multimode fiber, this AOC integrates transmitter and receiver modules in the ends and follows MSA-compatible SFP28 form factor standards to provide reliable 25 Gbps links between switches, routers, storage systems and other compatible network equipment.

Advantages

This 10 m SFP28-to-SFP28 AOC delivers electromagnetic-interference-free optical transmission, low latency and stable bandwidth over short reach multimode links. Built according to MSA guidelines, the cable uses matched optical transceiver components and supports digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time reporting of supply voltage, laser bias, transmitted and received power and temperature. The pre-assembled AOC eliminates patchcord mating and reduces insertion loss and maintenance compared with separate transceivers and fiber patching.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between 25G-capable switches and routers in data center racks
• High-performance computing clusters and server-to-switch links
• Short-reach storage networking and SAN uplinks supporting 25G
• Environments requiring EMI-immune optical links over multimode fiber

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 male to SFP28 male
• Nominal data rate: up to 25 Gbps per link
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable with integrated transceivers
• Reach: 10 meters over multimode fiber
• Supported protocols: Ethernet (25G), Fibre Channel over Ethernet, other 25G-compatible protocols
• Digital diagnostics: DDM/DOM (MSA SFF-8472 compatible)
• Form factor: SFP28 (MSA compliant)

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-25G-D-AOC-10M-H-BO by inserting each SFP28 module into the corresponding SFP28 port on the two network devices until the module latches. Verify that connected devices support 25G SFP28 AOCs and, if necessary, enable or check link speed and DDM/DOM support in the device firmware or management interface. No separate fiber patching or transceiver pairing is required because the cable is factory-assembled and keyed for direct SFP28-to-SFP28 connection.

Usage recommendations

Before deployment, confirm hardware compatibility and firmware support for third-party AOCs in your switches or routers. Use proper ESD precautions when handling SFP28 modules, avoid tight bends along the cable path, and ensure both ports report link and DDM status after insertion to verify healthy optical parameters.
