BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-25M-CI-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable SFP+ 25m Male/Male

The BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-25M-CI-BO InfiniBand/fibre optic cable SFP+ 25m Male/Male is a 25-metre active optical cable designed for high-speed connections between SFP+ ports. It provides a direct optical link suitable for short-to-medium range interconnects in rack, top-of-rack or intra-rack environments. The cable integrates SFP+ compatible transceivers on both ends and is intended to deliver low-latency, high-bandwidth performance for data transfer and network interconnection.

Advantages

This cable offers a ready-made SFP+ solution that eliminates separate transceiver and patch cable combinations, reducing installation complexity. Its active optical design supports 10 Gbit/s data rates with stable signal quality over the full 25 m length. The male-to-male connector arrangement ensures a secure plug-in fit to SFP+ ports, and the single-cable form factor reduces clutter in dense networking setups while providing electrical isolation and immunity to electromagnetic interference.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting switches, servers and storage arrays with SFP+ ports
• Short to medium reach links inside racks and between adjacent racks
• High-throughput InfiniBand or Ethernet fabrics requiring low latency
• Data centre top-of-rack and aggregation layer connections

Key specifications

• Cable type: active optical cable (AOC) with integrated SFP+ transceivers
• Length: 25 metres
• Connector type: SFP+ male on both ends
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s
• Application: InfiniBand and fibre-optic Ethernet interconnects
• Latency: optimized for low-latency links
• Immunity: resistant to electromagnetic interference due to optical transmission

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the matching SFP+ port on your network devices until the latch clicks. Ensure devices are powered down or that hot-plugging is supported by your equipment when inserting or removing the cable to avoid port errors. After installation, verify link status and negotiated speed on both connected devices. If necessary, check device compatibility lists or firmware settings to confirm the SFP+ AOC is recognized and operating at the expected 10 Gbit/s rate.

Place the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the manufacturer’s recommended minimum bend radius. Keep the connector dust caps until installation and store the cable coiled with gentle loops. For predictable performance, use the cable within its specified length and environmental conditions and follow device vendor guidance for supported passive/active optical modules.
