SFP Active Optical kaapeli CBO SFP-AOC-10G-50M 10G, 50 m

The BlueOptics SFP Active Optical Cable SFP-AOC-10G-50M is a factory-terminated, fixed-length 50 m SFP+ direct attach cable designed for 10G Ethernet and Fibre Channel links. It integrates optical transceivers and duplex multimode fiber into a single assembly that plugs directly into SFP+ ports, eliminating the need for separate transceivers or field fiber terminations. The cable is intended for use in data centers and networking environments where low latency, immunity to electromagnetic interference and simplified cabling are required.

Advantages

This SFP active optical cable supports 10 Gbit/s data rates over a 50 meter reach while maintaining low power consumption and consistent signal quality. Because the transceivers are integrated, deployment is simplified and inventory of separate modules and patch cords is reduced. The optical medium provides electrical isolation and immunity to EMI, which helps maintain stable links in dense rack and cable environments. The fixed-length design ensures predictable link characteristics and removes the need for connectorization or splicing.

Suitable for

• Direct server-to-switch or switch-to-switch connections within and between racks
• High-speed uplinks for top-of-rack (ToR) and end-of-row (EoR) architectures
• Storage area network (SAN) links and high-throughput storage access
• Environments requiring EMI immunity and low-latency interconnects

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Form factor: SFP+ direct-attach active optical cable
• Length: 50 metres (fixed)
• Connector: SFP+ duplex (both ends factory-terminated)
• Optical medium: integrated active optical fiber
• Latency: low, suitable for time-sensitive applications
• Immunity: electrical isolation, resistant to electromagnetic interference

How to use

Install the cable by inserting the SFP+ connectors into compatible SFP+ ports on networking equipment such as switches, servers or storage arrays. Ensure both ends are fully seated and the link LEDs on connected devices indicate an active connection. No additional transceivers, fiber patch cords or termination work is required. Verify device compatibility for SFP+ 10G active optical cable operation and, if necessary, configure link settings on the network devices (speed, duplex or link negotiation) according to vendor guidance.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive strain; respect the manufacturer's minimum bend radius. Use in environments within specified temperature and humidity limits for connected equipment. When replacing or troubleshooting links, power-cycle the ports only if recommended by the network equipment vendor and confirm firmware or compatibility notes for SFP+ AOC modules on your devices.
