Sure, it is the identical. 700c x 28 is basically the proper method to write it, however most write it 700 x 28c. 700c is the diameter and 28 is the width in mm.

When on the lookout for a tube, it can normally give a variety of tire widths that can work. For ex: 700c x 23-28 or 700c x 25-32. So long as your tire width falls throughout the vary, the tube will work.
