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

The BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-25M-MV-BO 25m Male/Male is an SFP+ active optical cable engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links over a 25-metre distance. With SFP+ male connectors on both ends, this fibre optic cable provides a direct, hot-pluggable connection between compatible SFP+ ports on switches, routers or network interface cards. The cable is intended for high-speed data transmission in data centre and enterprise network environments where a 25 m reach is required and where optical connectivity reduces electromagnetic interference and latency compared with copper alternatives.

Advantages

This active optical cable supports multi-gigabit throughput while maintaining low power consumption and stable signal integrity across the full 25 m span. The integrated optical transceivers eliminate the need for separate modules, simplifying installation and reducing component count. The male-to-male SFP+ form factor ensures compatibility with standard SFP+ ports, providing predictable link behaviour and plug-and-play operation without additional configuration. The optical construction offers immunity to electromagnetic interference and improved thermal stability in dense cabling environments.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting SFP+ ports on switches and routers within data centres
• Connecting servers to top-of-rack or end-of-row network equipment
• High-bandwidth links in enterprise LANs and campus networks
• Latency-sensitive applications and storage networking

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ active optical cable with male connectors on both ends
• Supported data rate: 10 Gbps
• Cable length: 25 metres
• Transmission medium: optical fibre (active optical cable)
• Compatibility: fits standard SFP+ ports supporting 10GbE

How to use

Ensure both devices have SFP+ ports that support 10 Gbps operation. Power on the devices before inserting the BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-25M-MV-BO cable, then insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding port until it clicks into place. The link should negotiate automatically; verify link status on the connected devices and check interface counters or management software for proper operation. To remove the cable, follow the host devices hot-swap procedures and gently extract the connectors.

Recommendations

Use the cable within the specified 25 m reach and avoid tight bends or kinks that could stress the optical assembly. Keep connector end caps on until installation to prevent contamination. Verify firmware and driver compatibility on network devices if link negotiation issues occur, and store the cable in a clean, dry environment when not in use.
