BlueOptics SFP28 Active Optical Cable (AOC) 5m 25GBASE-SR Compatible Ruckus SFP28-AOC-5M

The BlueOptics SFP28 Active Optical Cable (AOC) is a high-performance, cost-effective solution for 25 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data centers and enterprise networks. Designed as a compatible replacement for the Ruckus SFP28-AOC-5M, this cable integrates SFP28 transceivers at both ends with a pre-terminated multi-mode fiber optic cable, ensuring reliable and low-latency data transmission over distances up to 5 meters.

Advantages

This Active Optical Cable offers significant advantages over traditional copper cabling, including lighter weight, smaller bend radius, and immunity to electromagnetic interference. The hot-pluggable SFP28 connectors enable easy installation and maintenance, while the built-in Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM) provides real-time performance data. With low power consumption of less than 1.0W per end, it helps reduce energy costs in high-density environments.

Suitable for

• Data center interconnects between switches, servers, and storage devices
• High-performance computing (HPC) clusters
• Enterprise network upgrades to 25GbE
• Ruckus networking equipment requiring SFP28-AOC-5M compatible optics
