The JBX04762 7-meter 25GBASE-AOC SFP28 Active Optical Cable represents enterprise-grade connectivity engineered for modern high-speed network infrastructure. This active optical cable combines the advantages of fiber optics with convenient SFP28 form factor compatibility, making it an ideal solution for Ruckus network deployments requiring bandwidth-intensive applications. **Key Features & Specifications:** Built to IEEE 802.3by standards, this cable delivers sustained 25GB data rates essential for contemporary data center operations, cloud services, and virtualized environments. The OM3 50/125 multimode fiber core ensures optimal signal transmission across the full 7-meter length while maintaining excellent signal-to-noise ratios. With duplex construction and two fiber strands, it facilitates bidirectional communication critical for Ethernet applications. **Safety & Compliance:** The LSZH jacketing minimizes smoke and toxic gas emission during combustion, meeting stringent fire safety codes required in commercial buildings. OFNR (Riser) rating permits installation in vertical pathways without additional conduit. The cable carries multiple safety certifications including UL/FDA 21CFR 1040.10, TUV, and Class 1 Laser designation, ensuring safe operation in professional settings. **Installation & Compatibility:** Pre-terminated SFP28 connectors eliminate field termination requirements, reducing installation time and potential points of failure. Direct compatibility with Ruckus equipment (OEM P/N E25G-SFP28-AOC-0701 replacement) ensures seamless integration. The compact 12x12x7cm package fits standard rack configurations. **Performance Advantages:** Active optical cables maintain superior performance over longer distances compared to passive copper alternatives while consuming minimal power. Operating temperature range of 0-70°C accommodates diverse deployment environments from climate-controlled data centers to less-controlled network closets. **Warranty & Support:** Backed by a 90-day limited warranty with responsive customer support. Ships from strategically located distribution centers (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC) with free standard shipping on qualifying orders. **Applications:** Ideal for high-density switching environments, server interconnects, storage area networks (SANs), and enterprise network upgrades requiring immediate bandwidth expansion without extensive infrastructure modifications.
