Product Selling Points
1. Dual-Rate SFP28 for 25GbE and 32G Fibre Channel
Supports 25.78 GBPS (25GbE) and 28.05 GBPS (32G Fibre Channel) - providing versatile high-speed connectivity for data centers, enterprise networks, and storage area networks. One cable handles both Ethernet and Fibre Channel applications.
2. Active Optical Cable for Extended Distance and EMI Immunity
AOC construction enables cable lengths of 5 meters or more (custom available) - far exceeding copper cable limitations. Provides superior electromagnetic interference immunity, lighter weight, and smaller bend radius compared to copper alternatives for clean, reliable data center cabling.
3. 850nm VCSEL Technology with OM3/OM4 Fiber
Features 850nm VCSEL optical wavelength with OM3 or OM4 multimode fiber - delivering reliable optical transmission for high-bandwidth applications. 2-core fiber construction with PVC or LSZH jacket options to meet plenum or low-smoke requirements.
4. Programmable EEPROM with Durable Zinc Alloy Housing
Zinc alloy connector housing with nickel plating provides excellent durability and EMI shielding. EEPROM is programmable with vendor and serial number for system identification and asset tracking. Available with standard or extended pull tab, and ROHS compliant.

Applications
High-Bandwidth Optical Connectivity for Modern Data Centers
- Top-of-Rack (ToR) Switching: Connecting 25G servers to top-of-rack switches within the same rack or adjacent racks, providing high-bandwidth links with flexible cable routing compared to copper DACS.
- Leaf-Spine Architecture: Used in data center leaf-spine network topologies for interconnecting switches across multiple racks where distance exceeds copper DAC limitations.
- High-Performance Computing (HPC): Deployed in compute clusters requiring low-latency, high-bandwidth connections between nodes for parallel processing and AI/ML workloads.
- Cloud & Hyperscale Data Centers: Used in large-scale deployments where flexible cable management and longer reach are essential for efficient rack and row connectivity.
- Storage Area Networks (SAN): Integrated into 32G Fibre Channel storage environments for connecting servers to storage arrays across longer distances.
- Telecommunications & Edge Computing: Deployed in 5G base stations, edge data centers, and aggregation sites requiring reliable 25G back haul connections.
- Test & Measurement Equipment: Used in network testers, protocol analyzers, and lab environments for validating 25G network performance.
- Video Broadcast & Media: Implemented in broadcast facilities for 25G video transport and post-production workflows requiring high-bandwidth, reliable connectivity.

Star Reviews From Customers
1.Mike, data center engineer in Virginia
"Switched from copper DACS to AOCS for 25G server connections. The 5m AOC is more flexible-easier to route in crowded racks. No signal loss issues we saw with copper at this distance. The aqua color makes them easy to spot. Good product."
2.Priya, network architect in Bangalore
"Leaf-spine deployment needed 5m connections between racks. These 25G AOCS work perfectly with our Arista switches. The power consumption is lower than optics plus fiber. The extended pull tabs make swapping easy in tight spaces. Reliable."
3.Lisa, telecom engineer in Canada
"Edge data center needed 25G back haul. The industrial temperature version handled -30°C in outdoor cabinets. The 5m length reached between racks. Good performance, no failures in first year."
4.Raj, IT manager in India
"Server upgrade to 25G needed cables. These AOCS worked with our Dell switches. Plug and play, no driver issues. The 5m length covered our rack layout. Good quality for the price."
5.Yuki, lab tech in Tokyo
"Test lab needed 25G connections for validation. These AOCS are durable-hold up to frequent plugging. The 5m length works for our bench setup. Good signal integrity on the scope. Would recommend.
