Lightwin LWO-AOC-SFP28-10M 25G SFP28 Active Optical Cable, 10 m, Black

For data centers and high-performance computing environments where copper DACs fall short, this Lightwin active optical cable delivers 25 Gbps over a 10-meter reach with ultra-low latency and immunity to electromagnetic interference. The SFP28-to-SFP28 assembly integrates optical transceivers directly into the cable ends, eliminating the need for separate optics and reducing insertion loss compared to traditional fiber patch cords with pluggable modules.

Highlights

• 25 Gbps data rate per channel for 25G Ethernet connectivity
• 10-meter active optical cable with integrated SFP28 connectors
• Backward compatible with SFP+ ports at 10 Gbps
• Hot-pluggable design for quick installation without powering down the switch
• Low power consumption: under 1 W per end, powered from 3.3 V
• Multi-mode fiber core with PVC jacket for durability and flexibility
• Compliant with SFP28 MSA, RoHS, CE, and FCC standards

In daily use

Deploy this cable between top-of-rack switches and servers or storage arrays where distance exceeds copper limits. Its active optical design maintains signal integrity over the full 10-meter length, with high EMI/RFI immunity ensuring stable links even in electrically noisy racks. The cable operates reliably in temperatures from 0°C to 70°C, making it suitable for standard data center environments. Because the transceivers are permanently attached, there are no separate modules to misplace or clean, reducing maintenance overhead.
