InfiniBand / SFP28 fiber optic cable BlueOptics 25 m, SFP28–SFP28, turquoise

BlueOptics InfiniBand fiber optic cable, 25 m length with SFP28 connectors on both ends, provides a lightweight and color-coded turquoise cable for data center interconnects and high-speed 25 Gbit/s links. The male-to-male SFP28 configuration is suitable for direct connections between compatible SFP28 ports in switches, servers and storage systems. With a compact design and low weight, this cable is intended for short- to mid-range links where low latency and stable throughput are required.

Advantages

This BlueOptics SFP28 fiber optic cable supports 25 Gbit/s data rates, ensuring high-throughput connectivity for modern networking equipment. The standardized SFP28 interfaces at both ends enable straightforward plug-and-play installation without additional adapters. Its 25 m length covers typical rack-to-rack and row-to-row interconnect distances in server rooms and small data halls. The turquoise jacket improves visual identification and cable management in dense installations while the lightweight construction simplifies routing and handling.

How to use

Ensure both devices have compatible SFP28 ports and are powered down or support hot-plugging according to the vendor guidelines. Remove protective caps from SFP28 connectors, align each connector with the SFP28 port and insert until it locks. Route the 25 m cable following your cable management plan to avoid excessive bending and strain; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended by the equipment manufacturer. After insertion, verify link status on connected devices and confirm 25 Gbit/s operation via device diagnostics or management interfaces.

Recommendations

Store and handle the fiber cable by its jacket, avoid touching the connector endfaces, and keep protective caps on when not connected. Do not exceed the specified bend radius, avoid tight coils, and label both ends for easier maintenance. For multimode/singlemode compatibility, confirm transceiver and system requirements before deployment to ensure optimal signal integrity.
