Description

The Arista AOC-S-S-25G-15M is a 25GbE SFP28-to-SFP28 Active Optical Cable delivering 25 Gb/s over multimode fibre across a 15-metre reach — purpose-built for high-density data centre interconnects, top-of-rack switching, HPC clusters, and network storage environments. Operating at 850nm with less than 1W power consumption, it provides lower signal attenuation and reduced electromagnetic interference compared to passive copper DAC cables, making it the preferred choice where cable runs exceed the practical limits of copper.

As part of Arista's comprehensive 25G connectivity portfolio, this hot-pluggable SFP28 AOC integrates the transceiver directly into the cable assembly, simplifying installation and reducing rack clutter. RoHS compliant and Class 1 Laser certified, it is designed for operating temperatures of 0°C to 70°C and is compatible with Arista switches and other SFP28-equipped platforms.

Features

- Hot-pluggable SFP28 form factor enables easy deployment and live swapping without downtime
- Integrated transceiver within compact cable assembly eliminates the need for separate optics
- Multi-mode fibre at 850nm delivers low attenuation over 15m with minimal EMI
- Lightweight and flexible design simplifies cable management in high-density racks
- Ultra-low power consumption (<1W) reduces thermal load in dense data centre environments
- Supports 25 Gb/s per channel for top-of-rack switching, HPC, and storage networking
- RoHS compliant and Class 1 Laser certified (FDA 21CFR1040.10)
- Part of Arista's full 25G connectivity range including DACs, AOCs, and optical transceivers

FAQs

Q: What is the maximum cable length supported by the AOC-S-S-25G-15M?
A: This AOC supports a cable length of 15 metres (49 ft) over multi-mode fibre, making it well suited for intra-rack and top-of-rack switching applications where longer copper DAC cables would introduce too much signal loss.

Q: What is the difference between this AOC and a passive DAC cable?
A: An Active Optical Cable (AOC) uses embedded optical transceivers and multimode fibre, delivering lower signal attenuation, reduced electromagnetic interference, and a lighter, more flexible form factor than passive copper Direct Attach Cables (DACs). AOCs are preferred for runs beyond 5–7 metres.

Q: Which Arista switches is the AOC-S-S-25G-15M compatible with?
A: This cable is designed for use with Arista switches that feature SFP28 25G ports, including the 7050CX3, 7060CX2, and 7280 series. It is also compatible with other vendors' SFP28-equipped switches and host bus adapters that conform to the SFP28 MSA standard.

Q: Is the AOC-S-S-25G-15M suitable for high-performance computing (HPC) environments?
A: Yes. Its low latency, minimal power draw (under 1W), and lightweight multimode fibre construction make it an excellent choice for HPC clusters, network storage interconnects, and high-density data centre switching fabrics.

Q: Can I purchase the Arista AOC-S-S-25G-15M in Australia from IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware specialist stocking Arista optics and cables including the AOC-S-S-25G-15M. Contact our team for pricing, volume orders, and compatibility advice.

Q: Does this cable require any special configuration or drivers?
A: No. The AOC-S-S-25G-15M is hot-pluggable and requires no special drivers or configuration. It is recognised as a standard SFP28 optical interface by compatible switches and network adapters upon insertion.
