HPE

HPE R0M44A 25G SFP28 to SFP28 3m active optical cable

SKU CH-4ZFE-C7PP7 MPN R0M44A

Connects network devices at 25 Gbit/s over 9.84 ft with active SFP28 fibre optics

  • 25 Gbit/s throughput for high-speed networking
  • Active optical design maintains signal quality over distance
  • 84 ft length suits rack-to-rack connections
  • SFP28 connectors on both ends ensure direct compatibility
  • Purpose-built for network device deployments

HPE 25G SFP28 Active Optical Cable 3m

The HPE R0M44A is a 3-metre active optical cable with SFP28 connectors on both ends. It carries 25 Gbit/s Ethernet traffic between compatible network devices. The fibre-optic construction keeps the link lightweight and immune to electromagnetic interference.

Suits 25G SFP28 switch-to-switch

Network teams needing a 25 Gbit/s direct-attach cable for HPE Aruba or other SFP28-equipped gear will find this length convenient. It is not for links that require copper DAC, for distances beyond 3 metres, or for ports that only support lower speeds.

25 Gbit/s SFP28 data rate

The cable is rated for 25 Gbit/s over SFP28 interfaces. Active optics maintain signal integrity across the full 9.84 ft length. Verify that both ends of your link negotiate 25 Gbit/s before ordering.

Questions about this item

Will the R0M44A 25 Gbit/s cable link correctly to my existing SFP28 ports?

Yes, the R0M44A uses SFP28 connectors on both ends and operates at 25 Gbit/s, matching the electrical and mechanical interface of standard SFP28 ports.

How can I confirm the R0M44A active optical cable is operating at 25 Gbit/s after installation?

Check the switch or NIC port statistics for a negotiated speed of 25 Gbit/s and verify zero CRC or symbol errors on the link counters.

Does the R0M44A box include transceivers or only the 9.84 ft active optical cable?

The R0M44A is a complete assembly with SFP28 connectors permanently attached to each end of the 9.84 ft fiber, so no separate transceivers are required.
