SFP28 AOC kabel BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-10M-DL-BO 10m samec/samec

The BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-10M-DL-BO is a 10 m active optical cable (AOC) with SFP28 connectors on both ends, designed for 25G high-speed links in data center and networking environments. The pre-assembled AOC integrates optical transmitters and receivers in the cable assembly to provide a plug-and-play fiber connection that eliminates the need for separate transceivers, patch cords or manual termination. It supports multi-mode fiber transmission and follows SFP28 AOC MSA mechanical and electrical specifications for interoperability.

Advantages

This BlueOptics SFP28 AOC provides a compact, low-latency 25G connection over 10 meters with immunity to electromagnetic interference. The integrated transmitter and receiver simplify installation and reduce points of failure compared with discrete fiber patching. The cable supports digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time parameters such as voltage, laser bias current, optical output and receive power, and temperature, enabling remote monitoring and easier troubleshooting. The product is manufactured to MSA-aligned specifications and uses quality optical and electronic components to deliver long operational life and consistent performance.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 25G connections between switches, routers and storage systems
• Top-of-rack and spine-leaf data center interconnects
• High-density network panels and blade server interconnections

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 to SFP28
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC), multi-mode
• Nominal length: 10 meters
• Supported data rate: up to 25 Gbit/s per lane
• Monitoring: Digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM/DOM) compliant with SFF-8472
• Colour: aqua
• Weight: approximately 0.15 kg

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-10M-BO by inserting each SFP28 plug into compatible SFP28 ports on your network devices until the latch engages. Verify that the host devices support SFP28 AOC modules and, if required, enable or confirm DDM/DOM support to access diagnostic information. No additional optical patching or fiber connectors are required. For initial deployment, allow the devices to recognize the module and confirm link status and negotiated speed in the equipment management interface.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connectors and avoid tight bends; maintain the vendor-recommended minimum bend radius. Ensure both endpoint devices officially support SFP28 AOC modules and DDM/DOM if remote diagnostics are required. In rack installations, route the cable to prevent strain on the connectors and periodically verify link health using device monitoring tools.
