Provide a 25 Gigabit Ethernet connection between Cisco-compatible SFP28 ports with an integrated active optical cable assembly. Axiom Memory AXG98748 supplies a fixed 5 m link for equipment that needs a short optical interconnect rather than separately selected transceivers and fiber patch leads. Its SFP28 interface format aligns with 25GbE hardware using SFP28 cages. Use this cable for direct links between servers, storage platforms and network switches in racks, adjacent cabinets or other short-reach infrastructure locations. The active optical construction places the optical interfaces at each end of the cable, so the connection is made by inserting the integrated ends into the two SFP28 ports. It provides a defined cable length for layouts where 5 m reaches the target equipment without excess slack. This specific cable combines three selection details: 25GBASE-AOC operation, Cisco compatibility and a 5 m length. It is also marked TAA compliant, which can matter where that requirement applies to the equipment being selected. Confirm that both endpoints provide compatible 25 Gigabit SFP28 ports and that the 5 m cable path suits the intended rack or cabinet route.
