AOC SFP+ CBO SFP-AOC-10G-5M 10G aktiivinen optinen kaapeli, 5 m

AOC SFP+ CBO SFP-AOC-10G-5M 10G Active Optical Cable, 5 m is a factory-terminated active optical link designed for direct interconnection of SFP+ ports. With a fixed 5 metre length and SFP+ form-factor transceivers at both ends, this cable delivers 10 Gigabit per second connectivity with low latency and improved signal integrity compared with equivalent copper assemblies. The pre-terminated design simplifies installation in data centres and server rooms and the optical construction eliminates susceptibility to electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

The 10G active optical cable supports high-speed data transmission with reduced crosstalk and lower power consumption relative to some copper solutions. Its fixed-length, pre-terminated SFP+ modules avoid manual splicing or field termination and enable quick plug-and-play deployment. The optical medium offers longer reach and immunity to electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for dense networking environments and mixed-equipment racks.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting SFP+ ports on switches and routers
• Server-to-switch links within racks and between adjacent racks up to 5 m
• High-performance storage area network (SAN) connections
• Data centre aggregation and top-of-rack (ToR) cabling

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gigabit per second
• Connector type: SFP+ form-factor optical transceivers at both ends
• Length: 5 metres (fixed)
• Medium: active single/multimode optical assembly (pre-terminated)
• Latency: low, suitable for latency-sensitive applications
• Electromagnetic immunity: inherent due to optical transmission

How to use

Install the active optical cable by inserting each SFP+ module into the corresponding SFP+ port on network switches, servers or storage devices until the module latches. Ensure devices are powered down or follow hot-swap procedures recommended by the equipment manufacturer if available. Verify link status through the device management interface and monitor for expected data rate and error statistics. Avoid sharp bends in the cable and secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

Use this 5 m AOC for short interconnects within racks or between adjacent racks where 10G bandwidth and immunity to electromagnetic interference are required. Maintain bend radius guidelines from the manufacturer, avoid exposure to liquids and excessive heat, and confirm compatibility of SFP+ ports with active optical modules in your equipment. For longer runs, consider alternative optical solutions with appropriate transceivers and cabling.
