Cable óptico activo AOC CBO SFP28-AOC-50M 50 m para puertos SFP28

The AOC CBO SFP28-AOC-50M is a 50-metre active optical cable engineered for SFP28 ports to deliver high-speed, low-latency connections between networking equipment. Designed for direct fiber links, this cable connects compatible SFP28 transceivers in switches, servers and storage systems without requiring separate transceivers or patch cords. Its active optical design reduces power consumption and supports reliable data transmission across rack and data center deployments.

Advantages

This active optical cable offers a long 50 m reach while maintaining the compact form factor and low-latency performance expected from SFP28 interconnects. The integrated optical transceivers simplify installation and reduce the need for additional fiber patching. With a focus on stability and efficient power use, the cable is suitable for high-density environments and minimizes signal degradation over the link distance.

Suitable for

• Direct connections between SFP28 ports on switches and routers
• Server-to-switch links in rack and hyperscale environments
• Storage area network (SAN) and high-performance computing interconnects
• Data center spine-and-leaf and top-of-rack cabling

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP28 active optical cable
• Length: 50 metres
• Data rate: supports 25 Gbps per lane (SFP28 compatible)
• Cable type: single-mode active optical assembly
• Connector type: SFP28 form factor connectors on both ends
• Latency: low-latency optical link suitable for time-sensitive traffic
• Power consumption: reduced power compared with equivalent electrical DACs

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP28 connector into the matching SFP28 port on your devices, ensuring the connectors are aligned and latched securely. Verify link status and negotiated speed in the device management interface after insertion. For reliable operation, route the cable following standard data centre practices to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress. If devices support hot-plugging, the cable can be connected or removed while equipment is powered, but confirm device documentation to avoid unintended disruptions.
