Cable óptico activo BlueOptics SFP28-AOC-1M — 1 m SFP28 AOC compatible con F5 Networks

The AOC Cable CBO SFP28-AOC-1M 1m Length Compatible with F5 Networks is an active optical cable designed for high-speed 25GbE connections between compatible devices. Manufactured by BlueOptics, this 1 meter AOC provides a direct fiber-optic link for SFP28 ports and is intended as a short-reach, hot-pluggable interconnect solution for switches, routers and servers that support SFP28 transceivers and F5 Networks compatible modules.

Advantages

This 1m active optical cable offers low-latency, high-bandwidth transmission suitable for 25 Gigabit Ethernet environments. The integrated optics eliminate the need for separate transceivers and fiber patching for short in-rack or adjacent-rack connections. Being hot-pluggable, the cable supports simple installation and replacement with minimal downtime. The fixed length reduces clutter and simplifies cable management in dense rack deployments.

Suitable for

• Short-reach interconnects between SFP28 ports in data center racks
• Direct 25GbE links between switches, routers and servers
• High-performance network uplinks and server connections in enterprise environments

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP28 form factor with integrated optical transceivers
• Length: 1 meter
• Data rate: 25 Gigabit Ethernet compatible
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC) with integrated optics
• Compatibility: Designed for use with devices that support SFP28 ports and F5 Networks compatible modules

How to use

Insert each SFP28 connector of the cable into the corresponding SFP28 port on the network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both devices are powered and configured to recognise 25GbE links. No separate transceivers or fiber patch cords are required because the optics are integrated into the cable. For initial setup verify link status via device management interfaces and confirm expected throughput and link speed.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use this AOC within rack or adjacent-rack connections and avoid excessive bending near the connector ends. Keep connectors clean and protected when not in use, and verify device firmware supports SFP28 AOC modules compatible with F5 Networks before deployment.
