Cabo InfiniBand CBO 10G-SFPP-AOC-0501-BO 5 m SFP+ cabo ótico ativo, bainha laranja

The InfiniBand cable CBO 10G-SFPP-AOC-0501-BO is a 5 m SFP+ active optical cable with an orange jacket, designed for 10 Gbps SFP+ ports. It provides a low-latency, high-bandwidth optical connection suitable for short-distance links between switches, servers and storage in data centers and high-performance computing environments. The active optical construction yields electromagnetic immunity and reduced weight compared with copper alternatives, while the SFP+ terminations offer compatibility with standard 10 Gigabit SFP+ interfaces.

Advantages

The active optical design ensures stable 10 Gbps throughput with low latency and minimal signal degradation over the 5 m distance. The optical cable is lighter and more flexible than equivalent copper cables, improving cable management in dense rack environments. The orange jacket provides visual identification for fiber links and helps maintain organized infrastructure. Built for SFP+ ports, the cable reduces the need for separate transceivers by integrating optical transceivers into the cable ends.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between 10 Gbps SFP+ switches and top-of-rack servers
• Short-distance links in data centers and server rooms
• High-performance computing clusters requiring low-latency connections
• Storage area network (SAN) links and direct server-to-storage connections

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Cable type: active optical cable (AOC)
• Length: 5 m
• Jacket color: orange
• Optimized for low latency and high bandwidth over short fiber links
• Lightweight and flexible construction for improved cable routing

How to use

Ensure both devices have compatible SFP+ ports and support active optical cable connections. Power down or follow hot-plug procedures per device documentation before inserting the SFP+ ends. Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding port until it latches, verifying a secure mechanical connection. After connection, confirm link status and negotiated speed on both endpoints using device management interfaces. For removal, disengage the latch and pull straight out to avoid damaging the connector.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Keep the orange jacketed cable separated from high-heat sources and avoid tight compression. For reliable operation, verify compatibility with your network equipment’s SFP+ interfaces and consult device firmware or compatibility lists if necessary.
