    25G SFP28 Active Optical Cable Specification

    25G SFP28 Compatible Active Optical Breakout Cable

    25G SFP28 Compatible Active Optical Breakout Cable, fully tested compatible for over 100 vendors.

    1 Description

    25G SFP28 active optical cable (AOC) components are supported by active circuits, which have a longer transmission distance than passive or active SFP28 copper cables. It is specially designed for high-speed, short-range data links via optical fiber lines. SFP28 AOC provides signal integrity, longer distance, superior electromagnetic immunity and better bit error rate. It is a cost-effective solution for data center/storage and all short-range data applications.

    2 Features

    • Electrical interface compliant toSFF-8431
    • 850nm VCSEL laser and PINphoto-detector
    • Maximum link length of 70m on OM3 MMF and 100m on OM4MMF
    • Digital diagnostics functions are available via the I2C interface
    • RoHScompliant
    • HotPluggabl

    3 Applications:

    • 25GBASE-SREthernet
    • InfiniBand QDR, SDR,DDR
    • Servers, switches, storage and host cardadapters
