CBO AOC SFP+ -kaapeli SonicWall SFP-AOC-10G-5M 10 Gbit/s 5 m

CBO AOC SFP+ cable for SonicWall SFP-AOC-10G-5M 10Gbps 5m is an active optical direct-attach cable designed for compatibility with SonicWall SFP+ ports and other compatible 10G SFP+ interfaces. The cable provides a 10 gigabit per second full-duplex link over a 5-meter optical assembly, offering a low-latency, compact alternative to separate transceiver-plus-fiber installations. It is intended as a plug-and-play, hot-swappable connection for short-range interconnects between switches, servers and firewalls in racks, network closets and data center topologies.

Advantages

This active optical cable delivers 10Gbps throughput with minimal latency and reduced electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives. The integrated SFP+ connector ends simplify installation and reduce the number of field-terminated components required. Its 5-meter length is suitable for many rack-to-rack and rack-to-switch connections while keeping signal integrity over a short reach. The plug-and-play nature enables quick replacement and upgrades without additional configuration.

Suitable for

• Short-range connections between servers and top-of-rack or end-of-row switches
• Firewall and router SFP+ ports, including SonicWall-compatible interfaces
• Network closet and data center patching where a compact 10G link is required
• High-density rack environments to reduce cable bulk and heat compared to copper

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps full duplex
• Length: 5 meters
• Connector type: SFP+ direct-attach active optical cable
• Cable type: Active optical fiber
• Latency: low, suitable for switch-to-server interconnects
• Compatibility: designed for SonicWall-compatible SFP+ ports and other standard SFP+ interfaces

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on your devices until the latch engages. The device should recognise the active optical cable automatically and configure the 10Gbps link using existing interface settings. No additional transceivers or fiber patch cords are required. For removal, depress the connector latch and pull straight out to avoid damaging the port. Ensure both linked devices support 10Gbps SFP+ connections and have compatible firmware where vendor-specific locking is enforced.

Recommendations

Install and route the cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive strain on connector housings; maintain manufacturer-recommended bend radius. Verify physical compatibility with device port spacing in high-density panels. For reliable operation, keep device firmware up to date and check for any vendor-specific compatibility notes before deployment.
