SFP+ Cable BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-25M-AT-BO 25m Male/Male

The BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-25M-AT-BO is a 25 m SFP+ active optical cable (AOC) with SFP+ male connectors on both ends, designed for 10GBASE-SR multi-mode fiber links. The pre-assembled cable integrates transmitter and receiver modules on each end and follows MSA SFP+ AOC standards to ensure electromechanical and functional interoperability with SFP+ ports. The cable supports up to 10 Gbit/s over 25 meters and includes Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) to report operational parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature when supported by the host hardware.

Advantages

This BlueOptics active optical cable provides a factory-assembled fiber link that eliminates manual patching and reduces connector loss and contamination risks. Compliance with MSA SFP+ AOC specifications and testing for compatibility with common network platforms help ensure plug-and-play operation in switches, routers and storage systems that support SFP+ AOCs. Built with quality optical transmitters, receivers and control ICs, the cable is intended for long operating life and stable performance in high-speed environments.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centers
• Inter-switch links within racks or across adjacent racks up to 25 m
• Storage area network (SAN) uplinks and converged network links
• Low-latency connections for virtualization and clustered systems

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ to SFP+ active optical cable
• Length: 25 meters
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s (10GBASE-SR)
• Fiber type: multi-mode optical fiber
• Digital Diagnostics: DDM/DOM support (host hardware dependent)
• MSA compliance: SFP+ AOC mechanical and electrical specification

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices to be connected, ensuring the connector latch engages. Verify that the host devices support SFP+ AOC modules and, if required, enable any vendor interoperability settings. After insertion, check link status and use the host system or management software to read DDM/DOM parameters if available. For best results, avoid tight bends and mechanical stress on the cable and secure it to prevent movement that could affect connectors.

Recommendations

Use the AOC in indoor data center or telecom environments within recommended operating temperature and humidity ranges for your hardware. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, liquids and sources of mechanical abrasion. If DDM/DOM telemetry is required, confirm support in your switch or router firmware and review diagnostic readings periodically to detect degradation in transmit/receive power or temperature anomalies.
