AOC SFP+ aktiivinen optinen kaapeli CBO 10GE-SFPP-AOC-0501 10 Gbit/s, 5 m

The AOC SFP+ Active Optical Cable CBO 10GE-SFPP-AOC-0501 10Gbps, 5 m is a factory-terminated optical interconnect designed for short-reach, high-speed links between servers, switches and storage systems. This active optical cable uses SFP+ form-factor connectors to deliver a 10 Gbps full-duplex data rate over a 5 meter fiber assembly, combining the simplicity of direct-attach cabling with the signal integrity and reduced electromagnetic susceptibility of optical transmission. It is intended for data center topologies where low latency, consistent throughput and space-efficient routing are required.

Advantages

The active optical construction provides lower insertion loss and stable performance compared with passive copper alternatives at comparable lengths, while maintaining the mechanical convenience of a pluggable SFP+ interface. The cable supports high-bandwidth, low-latency links suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet environments and helps reduce cable bulk and heat generation in dense rack deployments. Optical transmission reduces interference and maintains signal integrity across the full 5 m span, supporting reliable short-reach connectivity in modern network and storage infrastructures.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections between switches and servers
• Top-of-rack to aggregation switch interconnects
• High-performance storage area network (SAN) links
• Rack-to-rack short-reach connections in data centers
• Low-latency links for virtualized and clustered environments

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps full-duplex
• Connector type: SFP+ form-factor pluggable connectors
• Cable type: active optical assembly (AOC)
• Length: 5 meters
• Transmission medium: optical fiber with integrated transceivers
• Typical use: short-reach, intra-rack and inter-rack links
• Latency: low, suitable for time-sensitive data traffic

How to use

Install the cable by inserting the SFP+ connector ends into compatible SFP+ ports on switches, servers or storage devices until the latch engages. Verify that both devices recognize the active optical link and configure interface parameters on network equipment as required for 10 Gigabit Ethernet operation. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the recommended minimum bend radius and secure the cable to prevent strain on connector interfaces. For hot-pluggable environments, observe device indications and system logs when connecting or disconnecting the cable.

Recommendations

Use this active optical cable for short-reach 10Gbps links where reduced electromagnetic interference, lower weight and improved thermal characteristics are desired. Confirm SFP+ port compatibility and vendor interoperability before deployment and follow data center cabling best practices for routing and securing optical assemblies.
