## Summary description

CBO SFP28-AOC-5M-NG-BO is a 5-meter active optical cable (AOC) with SFP28 connectors designed for high-speed 25Gbps links between compatible switches, servers and network equipment. The plug-and-play assembly provides low-latency, electrical isolation and reduced cabling bulk compared to copper. Suitable for data center short-reach interconnects and rack-to-rack connections.

## Long description

CBO SFP28-AOC-5M-NG-BO is a 5 m active optical cable with SFP28 connectors designed for 25 Gbps data links. The assembly provides a plug-and-play connection between compatible switches, servers and network devices, offering low latency, galvanic isolation and a compact optical form factor. Compared with equivalent copper twinax or DAC solutions, this AOC reduces cable bulk and heat generation while maintaining signal integrity over short-reach data center runs and rack-to-rack interconnects.
Advantages
The cable delivers a full 25 Gbps bandwidth per lane with SFP28 interface compatibility, ensuring support for high-throughput applications. Its active optical design minimizes electromagnetic interference and provides electrical isolation between devices. The lightweight, flexible cable and integrated transceiver heads simplify routing in dense rack environments and reduce strain on ports. As a factory-terminated AOC, it requires no field mating or additional transceivers, enabling fast installation and predictable performance.
Suitable for
Short-reach links between switches and servers in data centers
Rack-to-rack interconnects in high-density network deployments
Top-of-rack connections for 25 Gbps network fabrics
Server uplinks and aggregation ports requiring low-latency links
Key specifications
Connector type: SFP28 on both ends
Cable type: active optical cable (AOC)
Length: 5 meters
Data rate: up to 25 Gbps
Form factor: hot-pluggable SFP28 transceiver heads integrated with fiber
Latency: low, suitable for high-performance networking
Electrical isolation: optical transmission provides galvanic isolation
How to use
Install the cable by inserting each SFP28 connector into the corresponding SFP28 port on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both devices support 25 Gbps SFP28 AOC links and that firmware or port settings match the intended link speed. Avoid excessive bending of the cable near the transceiver heads and route the cable to minimise stress on connectors. Power up connected devices and verify link status through the device management interface or LED indicators.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, use the cable within typical data center environmental conditions and avoid tight bends near the transceiver ends. Confirm compatibility with your switch or server vendor for supported SFP28 AOC modules and, where possible, keep firmware updated to ensure link stability and optimal performance.
