BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-25M-CH-BO Cable de fibra óptica InfiniBand SFP+ 25m conector/conector

The BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-25M-CH-BO is a 25-metre active optical cable with SFP+ connectors designed for high-speed InfiniBand and fibre optic network links. This male-to-male SFP+ cable provides a single, integrated fibre connection without separate transceivers, delivering stable 10 Gigabit-class data transmission for switches, servers and storage systems. The cable's length and connector format make it suitable for short to medium intrarack and interrack connections where low latency and signal integrity are required.

Advantages

The integrated SFP+ design eliminates the need for separate optical modules and patch cords, simplifying installation and reducing component count. The 25 m active optical construction offers electromagnetic immunity and lower power consumption compared with equivalent copper direct attach cables at similar distances. The male-to-male SFP+ connectors ensure hot-pluggable compatibility with standard SFP+ ports and maintain consistent signal performance across the specified distance.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit InfiniBand and fibre optic connections between network devices
• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links within data centres
• Storage area network (SAN) connectivity and short interrack links
• Environments requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth optical links

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Supported data rate: 10 Gbit/s class
• Length: 25 metres
• Optical medium: multimode fibre within AOC assembly
• Transmission: bidirectional full-duplex
• Compatibility: standard SFP+ slots supporting InfiniBand and Ethernet over SFP+

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on network devices following the device manufacturer's hot-plug guidance. Ensure that both ends are fully seated and that the devices recognize the link. No separate transceivers or patch cords are required; the cable provides integrated optical transceivers within the AOC assembly. Verify link speed and status via the host equipment's management interface and confirm that firmware and port settings are configured to support 10 Gbit/s operation if necessary.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by the connector housings and avoid tight bends; follow the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer to preserve optical performance. Use in clean, ventilated rack spaces and avoid routing near strong electromagnetic interference sources despite the cable's immunity to EMI. For compatibility, confirm SFP+ port support for active optical cables and update device firmware when required.
