## Summary description

Passive-style wording avoided. This CBO Active Optical Cable (model SFP28-AOC-3M-NG-BO) is a 3-meter SFP28 AOC designed for use with 25Gbps SFP28 ports. It provides a direct optical link between compatible switches, servers or NICs using SFP28 transceivers, simplifying high-speed connections without separate fiber patch cables. Suitable for short-reach data center and rack-to-rack links.

## Long description

This CBO Active Optical Cable SFP28-AOC-3M-NG-BO is a 3-meter SFP28 AOC engineered for 25Gbps SFP28 ports. It creates a direct optical connection between compatible switches, servers and network interface cards (NICs) using SFP28 form-factor transceivers, eliminating the need for separate fiber patch cords and transceivers for short-reach links. The cable is intended for data center and rack-to-rack deployments where a compact, low-power, high-bandwidth link is required.
Advantages
The AOC design offers low insertion loss and consistent signal performance across the 3 m link while consuming less power than many optical transceiver plus fiber combinations. Its plug-and-play SFP28 modules enable straightforward installation into standard 25Gbps SFP28 ports without manual fiber handling. The single cable assembly reduces cable management complexity and helps maintain optimal airflow in rack environments.
Suitable for
Short-reach data center interconnects between switches and top-of-rack devices
Rack-to-rack links within the same room or adjacent cabinets
Direct server-to-switch or server-to-server connections using SFP28 ports
High-density networking deployments where space and cable management are important
Key specifications
Form factor: SFP28 AOC
Nominal length: 3 metres
Data rate: up to 25 Gbps per lane
Connector type: SFP28 plug on both ends
Transmission medium: active optical cable assembly
Typical application: short-reach links in data center and rack environments
Power consumption: lower than typical discrete transceiver plus fiber solutions (device-dependent)
How to use
Install the SFP28 AOC by inserting each SFP28 plug into the corresponding 25Gbps SFP28 port on your network devices until the module latches. Verify link status in the device management interface and check for any port or compatibility warnings. No separate fiber patching or transceiver pairing is required; the cable assembly contains the optical transceivers and fiber. For removal, unlatch the SFP28 modules and pull straight out to avoid stressing the cable or connectors.
Usage recommendations
Use this 3 m SFP28 AOC for in-rack or adjacent-rack connections where 25Gbps bandwidth is needed and short, reliable optical links are preferred. Ensure devices support SFP28 AOC modules and confirm firmware compatibility if required. Avoid tight bends and mechanical stress on the cable; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius and keep connectors clean before insertion.
