## Summary description

Active Optical Cable (AOC) CBO SFP28 BlueOptics BO272703Q3M is a 3-meter SFP28 module for 25 Gbps connections. Designed for short-distance high-speed interconnects between switches, servers and NICs, it provides low-latency, reduced electromagnetic interference and simplified cabling compared with copper. Suitable for data center uplinks and rack-to-rack links.

## Long description

The AOC CBO SFP28 BlueOptics BO272703Q3M — Active Optical Cable 3 m, SFP28 (25Gbps) is a factory-terminated, hot-pluggable SFP28 optical link designed for short-reach, high-bandwidth connections. This 3‑metre active optical cable delivers 25 Gbps full-duplex throughput for direct interconnects between switches, servers and network interface cards. It replaces copper twinax in top-of-rack and intra-rack environments to reduce weight and electromagnetic interference while maintaining low latency and predictable signal integrity.
Advantages
The active optical cable offers lower power consumption and reduced heat generation compared with longer copper links, and its optical construction eliminates common-mode EMI issues. Being a plug-and-play SFP28 form-factor solution, it simplifies cabling and reduces installation time in dense rack environments. The fixed 3 m length provides a predictable physical layout for rack-to-rack and switch-to-server connections while minimizing cable management complexity.
Suitable for
 Data centre uplinks and aggregation between 25 Gbps switch ports
 Direct server-to-switch or server-to-server connections inside racks
 High-density top-of-rack deployments where space and EMI control matter
 Low-latency interconnects for storage and compute clusters
Key specifications
 Connector type: SFP28 duplex optical
 Data rate: 25 Gbps per lane (full-duplex)
 Length: 3 metres
 Topology: Direct attach active optical cable (factory-terminated)
 Application: Short-reach rack-to-rack and intra-rack links
 Signal characteristics: Low latency, optical transmission to reduce EMI
How to use
Install the AOC by inserting each SFP28 plug into the corresponding SFP28 port on network equipment until the module latches. Ensure both ends are seated and that the host devices are powered and configured for 25 Gbps operation. No separate transceivers, patch cables or fiber termination are required; the factory-terminated cable provides a single-cable solution. Monitor link LEDs and system logs to confirm link negotiation and expected speed.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the equipment vendor. Use the 3 m AOC for intra-rack or short inter-rack distances and match port speed and firmware compatibility on switches and NICs. Handle the optical connectors with care and inspect for contamination before insertion.
