BlueOptics SFP28 Active Optical Cable (AOC) 25GBASE-SR 3m Compatible Lenovo 4X97A94008

The BlueOptics SFP28 Active Optical Cable (AOC) is a high-performance, cost-effective solution for 25 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data centers and high-performance computing environments. Designed as a compatible alternative to the Lenovo 4X97A94008, this cable integrates SFP28 transceivers on both ends, providing a reliable and low-latency link over multi-mode fiber. With a length of 3 meters, it is ideal for short-range interconnects within racks or between adjacent racks.

Advantages

This AOC offers significant advantages over traditional copper cabling, including lighter weight, thinner diameter, and superior electromagnetic interference (EMI) immunity. It consumes less than 1.0 W of power, reducing overall energy costs in dense deployments. The hot-swappable design and digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM) enable easy maintenance and real-time performance tracking.
