Ubiquiti UACC-AOC-SFP28-10M Optical Cable

The Ubiquiti UACC-AOC-SFP28-10M is an ultra-thin 10-meter active optical cable with SFP28 transceivers on both ends, designed for 25 Gbps data transmission. It is intended for short- to medium-distance links between network switches, racks, or other compatible SFP28 ports, offering a reliable low-latency connection in data centers and enterprise networks. The cable’s aqua color and durable construction support long-term installation and easy identification.

Advantages

This active optical cable supports 25 Gbps throughput using SFP28 optical transceivers, combines low weight and a slim profile for cleaner cable management, and reduces electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives. Available in multiple lengths, the cable provides consistent performance across short and medium distances and is compatible with equipment that accepts SFP28 modules.
