The JBX04625 1-meter 25GBASE-AOC SFP28 Active Optical Cable represents cutting-edge networking technology designed specifically for Extreme Networks environments. This active optical cable combines optical fiber transmission with integrated electronics to deliver exceptional 25 Gigabit per second performance over extended distances without signal degradation. **Technical Excellence:** Built with OM3 50/125 multimode fiber strands, this cable meets IEEE 802.3by and SFF-8402/SFF-8472 standards. The duplex fiber configuration ensures bidirectional communication, while the precisely engineered 1-meter length provides optimal flexibility for rack-to-rack or switch-to-server connections in data center environments. Operating temperature range of 0-70°C (32-158°F) accommodates diverse deployment scenarios. **Safety & Compliance:** The cable features LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) riser-rated jacketing, critical for enclosed spaces and compliance with fire safety regulations. Full RoHS/ELV compliance and EU directive 2002/95/EC certification ensure environmental responsibility. Class 1 Laser, TUV, UL/FDA (21CFR 1040.10), and LN #50 7/2001 certifications demonstrate rigorous safety testing. **Superior Construction:** The plastic jacketing with integrated fiber strands provides durability while maintaining flexibility for installation in constrained spaces. The robust design withstands the demands of active data center environments while maintaining signal integrity. **Perfect Applications:** Ideal for: Data center interconnects, enterprise network upgrades, server-to-switch connections, high-speed LAN environments, and telecommunications infrastructure requiring proven reliability and performance. **Value & Support:** Ships from strategically located distribution centers in California and South Carolina for fast delivery. Custom brand programming available for enterprise deployments. Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. Compatible with Extreme Networks equipment (replaces OEM part 10530-1M), making this an affordable upgrade path for existing infrastructure.
