Product Features
Technical Overview
This fiber optic cable utilizes Active Optical Cable (AOC) technology, which integrates optical transceivers directly into the cable assembly. This design provides electrical-to-optical conversion at each end, enabling longer reach and higher bandwidth compared to traditional copper cables while maintaining a familiar plug-and-play installation experience.
The cable features SFP28 connectors on both ends, providing a direct interface for 25 Gigabit Ethernet applications. The SFP28 form factor is backward compatible with SFP+ ports while offering higher data rates, making this cable suitable for upgrading existing infrastructure or deploying new high-performance networks.
Key Product Advantages
This Axiom fiber optic cable delivers several advantages for network administrators and IT professionals. The active optical design provides superior signal integrity over longer distances compared to passive DAC cables, while consuming less power than separate transceiver modules.
