AOC CBO SFP-AOC-10G-2M-ZY-BO aktiivinen optinen kaapeli SFP+ 10Gb/s, 2 m

The AOC CBO SFP-AOC-10G-2M-ZY-BO active optical cable SFP+ 10Gb/s, 2 m is a 2‑metre SFP+ direct-attach solution engineered for short-range, high-speed connections in data center and network infrastructures. It integrates SFP+ form-factor transceivers with an optical fiber link inside a single assembly to deliver 10 Gb/s data throughput, lower latency compared with copper DACs, and immunity to electromagnetic interference. The compact, plug-and-play design reduces cable bulk and simplifies interconnections between switches, servers and network interface cards.

Advantages

This active optical cable provides high bandwidth at 10 Gb/s while maintaining low power consumption and minimal signal loss over the 2 m span. The optical medium offers improved electromagnetic compatibility, making it suitable for dense rack environments where electrical noise can affect copper alternatives. Its SFP+ connectors follow standard form-factor specifications for easy hot-plug installation and straightforward replacement or upgrade without modifying existing SFP+ ports.

Suitable for

• Inter-switch links within a rack or between adjacent racks
• Server-to-switch connections in data centers and server rooms
• Connections to SFP+ capable NICs and storage systems
• High-density networking setups requiring compact cabling

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gigabits per second
• Length: 2 metres
• Interface: SFP+ form-factor transceivers integrated into the cable
• Cable type: Active optical cable (single assembly with optical fiber)
• Operating use: Short-range connections within racks and adjacent racks
• Electromagnetic performance: Immune to EMI typical of optical links

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the appropriate SFP+ port on the devices to be connected, ensuring the connectors click into place and module latches are secured. The cable is hot-swappable and requires no additional configuration on most managed switches and servers; devices typically recognize the link automatically. Verify link status and speed through device management interfaces to confirm the 10 Gb/s connection. When removing, release the latch and pull the module straight out to avoid damaging the connector.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short interconnects where 2 m length is sufficient; avoid excessive bending or tight radius near the SFP+ modules to preserve optical performance. Keep connectors clean and protect unused ports with dust caps. For mixed environments, confirm SFP+ compatibility with switch and NIC vendors' supported modules list to ensure full link functionality.
