Default Is SDS all right for 25mm hole in brick?

I would like to make a hole in a single-leaf brick wall, so I can pass a
22mm copper pipe through. There is access to one side of the wall only.

Would using a 25mm SDS drill be a satisfactory and safe way of making this
hole? Would break-out on the far side be a problem? I have never used an
SDS drill as big as this (nothing bigger than 10mm previously), so I am not
sure what to expect.

Or should I be thinking of using something different from an SDS drill?
