Cabo ótico ativo AOC CBO SFP-AOC-10G-50M 10G 50 m para portas SFP+

The AOC CBO SFP-AOC-10G-50M is a 10 Gigabit Active Optical Cable designed for SFP+ ports, offering a 50-meter reach for high-speed connections between switches, servers and storage systems. The cable converts electrical SFP+ signals to optical transmission within the module assemblies, enabling reliable 10G links over multimode or single-mode fiber paths depending on the device implementation. This solution reduces susceptibility to electromagnetic interference and supports data center and server room topologies that require longer copper-free interconnects.

Advantages

This Active Optical Cable provides a stable 10G link with lower latency and reduced signal degradation compared to long copper runs. Its optical transmission removes common-mode electrical interference and eliminates ground loop issues between connected devices. The 50 m length enables flexible rack-to-rack or row-to-row cabling while maintaining SFP+ compatibility for straightforward insertion into compatible transceiver ports. Its hot-pluggable design supports maintenance and rapid reconfiguration without shutting down systems.

Suitable for

• 10G uplinks between network switches in data centers and telecom rooms
• Server-to-switch connections in rack and row architectures
• Storage area network (SAN) links and high-throughput storage arrays
• High-density patching where electromagnetic isolation is required

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gigabit per second (10G)
• Connector type: SFP+ form factor compatible plug-in modules
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable assembly
• Maximum length: 50 meters
• Transmission medium: optical fiber within the AOC assembly
• Operation: hot-pluggable, plug-and-play with SFP+ ports

How to use

Install the AOC by inserting each SFP+ end into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices you intend to link, ensuring the connectors are fully seated and the latches engage. Confirm that the connected equipment supports SFP+ AOC modules and configure interface settings on switches or servers as required by your network architecture. Monitor link status LEDs and device management interfaces to verify proper negotiation and 10G link establishment. Remove the cable by depressing the latch and pulling the module straight out to avoid damaging the connector.

Recommendations

Use the cable in environments where 50 m reach meets topology requirements and maintain gentle cable bends to preserve optical performance. Avoid exposing the AOC to sharp edges, excessive tensile force, or liquids. Verify compatibility with vendor switch and server firmware; in mixed-vendor environments, confirm interoperability before large deployments.
