## Summary description

Active optical cable CBO SFP28-AOC-5M is a 5-meter AOC designed for SFP28 ports. It provides a direct optical connection between compatible SFP28 devices without separate transceivers, suitable for short-reach high-speed links in data centers, servers and switches. The cable simplifies installation, reduces power and cooling needs, and ensures reliable low-latency connectivity.

## Long description

Active Optical Cable CBO SFP28-AOC-5M is a 5-meter active optical cable engineered for SFP28 ports to deliver 25 Gbps short-reach connectivity. The integrated transceiver ends allow direct optical links between compatible SFP28 devices such as switches, servers and network interface cards without separate pluggable transceivers. The cable is intended for high-density data center and server rack environments where reliable low-latency links, simplified installation and reduced power draw are important.
Advantages
The cable combines optical signal transmission with plug-and-play convenience, eliminating the need to install individual transceivers. Passive handling of optical conversion in the cable heads reduces the number of linecards and spare parts required. The AOC design lowers electrical power consumption and heat generation compared with equivalent copper connections, and its fixed length and pre-terminated ends simplify cable management in racks and patch panels.
Suitable for
25 Gbps short-reach links between SFP28 ports in data centers
Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections within racks
High-density rack deployments where low latency is required
Environments seeking lower power and simplified cabling compared with discrete transceivers
Key specifications
Connector type: SFP28 compatible optical plug heads
Nominal data rate: 25 Gbps (per lane capability typical for SFP28 devices)
Length: 5 m (fixed length, pre-terminated)
Cable type: Active optical cable with integrated optics
Typical use: Short-reach intra-rack and inter-rack links
Latency: Low-latency optical transmission suitable for high-performance networking
How to use
Insert each SFP28-compatible plug head into the SFP28 port on the devices to be connected until the connector latches. Ensure both devices support SFP28 AOC connections and are powered off or accept hot-plugging according to vendor guidance. After seating the connectors, verify link status on the devices and configure interfaces as required by the network setup. No separate transceivers, fibers or patch cords are required for the link.
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain, keep it away from sources of excessive heat, and follow the SFP28 port vendor’s guidance for hot-plugging and compatibility. Use the 5 m fixed length to plan rack layouts and reduce excess slack by securing the cable with appropriate management clips.
