Axiom AOC-SFP-25G-1M-AX
The AxiomAOC‑SFP‑25G‑1M‑AXActive Optical Cable is a 1‑meter, high‑performance SFP28 AOC engineeredfor Cisco‑compatible 25 Gigabit Ethernet interconnects. Perfectly suited for high‑density data center, enterprise networking, or HPC setups, this AOC delivers ultra‑low latency, reliable 25 Gbps data transmission using integrated optical engine technology in a plug‑and‑play format. Lightweight and flexible, it minimizes cable clutter while maximizing airflow in rack environments. With seamless compatibility across Cisco, Arista, Dell, and other major-brand SFP28 ports, it simplifies inventory management—no separate transceivers or patch cables required. Ideal for spine‑leaf architectures, storage arrays, and server-to-switch links, the Axiom1 m AOC ensures high-bandwidth, energy‑efficient connectivity. Backed with a three‑year warranty and easy returns, it delivers performance without compromise.
Features
The AxiomAOC‑SFP‑25G‑1M‑AX brings optical transceiver and cable into one integrated unit, offering smooth 25 Gbps links between SFP28 ports without the complexity of separate modules or fibers. Built to the SFP28 Multi‑Source Agreement (MSA) and IEEE 802.3by standards, it supports data rates up to 25.78 Gbps with minimal latency, based on typical implementations . The embedded 850 nm VCSEL transceivers, PIN photodetectors, and retimers maintain signal fidelity across the 1 m OM3/OM4 multimode fiber, all while consuming under 1 W per end This plug‑and‑play AOC simplifies cabling in chassis or rack environments by reducing component count and eliminating the need for patch panel maintenance or fiber cleaning. Its slim, flexible cable and hot‑pluggable connectors enhance installation ease, airflow, and cable management . The commercial‑grade design ensures consistent performance over a 0 °C to 70 °C operating range and broad vendor compatibility—including Cisco, Dell, Juniper, Mellanox, and more Suitable for connecting servers, switches, or storage devices, it supports spine‑leaf architectures, top‑of‑rack switch‑to‑server links, and GPU‑accelerated compute clusters.Built for enterprise-grade reliability, the AOC includes digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM) via the I²C interface, allowing real‑time monitoring of parameters such as optical power, temperature, and voltage
Advanced Options
The AxiomAOC‑SFP‑25G‑1M‑AX stands out for its robust reliability and high performance in demanding IT environments. Combining optical transceiver and fiber into a singular unit eliminates the mechanical and alignment vulnerabilities inherent in discrete transceivers plus patch cables. It’s a durable choice designed to endure repeated insertions and dynamic rack conditions, significantly lowering failure points.Operating efficiently, the internal CDR and VCSEL components maintain signal integrity while keeping power draw below 1 W per end—this contributes to lower heat emissions and optimized energy use compared to passive copper options . The flexible cable design, with a minimal bend radius around 7.5 mm, allows for tight routing without compromising performance
