Axiom R0M44A-AX 25Gb SFP28 Active Optical Cable 9.84 ft

SKU CH-D5K0-0QJJ9 MPN R0M44A-AX

25 Gb SFP28 active optical cable, 9.84 ft, MSA compliant and HP compatible

  • 25Gb SFP28 speed for high-throughput links
  • 84 ft reach fits standard rack spacing
  • HP compatible design ensures drop-in deployment
  • MSA compliant build works across multi-vendor gear
  • 100% OEM compatibility guaranteed by pre-coded serialization

25Gb SFP28 Active Optical Cable

The Axiom R0M44A-AX is a 25Gb SFP28 active optical cable built for short-reach data-centre links. It targets network engineers who need a factory-coded, MSA-compliant fibre assembly that drops into existing HP-compatible switches without configuration.

25 Gb/s throughput and 9.84 ft reach

The cable delivers 25 Gb/s per lane across a 9.84 ft span, handling top-of-rack to aggregation connections inside a single rack row. Beyond that distance the fixed length becomes the limiting factor and a longer assembly or transceiver pair is required.

MSA-compliant build with serialized modules

Each end carries a serialized SFP28 module programmed to the OEM part number R0M44A, guaranteeing recognition in all MSA-compliant platforms. The active optical construction removes the bulk of copper twinax, easing cable management in dense patch panels while eliminating electromagnetic interference.

Questions about this item

Will the R0M44A-AX 25Gb SFP28 cable work with my existing 10Gb SFP+ switch ports?

The R0M44A-AX is built for 25Gb SFP28 ports and follows the MSA specification. It will not negotiate down to 10Gb SFP+ speeds, so it must be used with matching 25Gb SFP28 interfaces on both ends.

How can I confirm the 25Gb SFP28 active optical cable is operating correctly after installation?

Check the switch or router port status for a 25Gb link, verify the Tx and Rx optical power readings fall within the module’s normal range, and run a traffic test to confirm error-free throughput at line rate.

What comes with the R0M44A-AX cable and is anything else required to use it?

The package contains the 9.84 ft Axiom R0M44A-AX 25Gb SFP28 active optical cable with factory-coded SFP28 connectors on both ends. No separate transceivers or adapters are needed; just insert it into two compatible 25Gb SFP28 ports.
