Cabo ótico ativo AOC CBO SFP-AOC-10G-7M 10G SFP+ para SFP+ 7 m

The AOC active optical cable CBO SFP-AOC-10G-7M 10G SFP+ to SFP+ 7 m is a factory-terminated fibre link designed to provide a 10 Gigabit Ethernet connection between SFP+ ports over a 7-metre optical channel. Intended for short-range, high-speed interconnects in data centres and server rooms, this BlueOptics AOC reduces electromagnetic interference and signal loss typical of copper links while keeping latency low. The compact SFP+ form factor makes it compatible with switches, storage arrays and servers that accept SFP+ direct-attach optical modules.

Advantages

This active optical cable offers a stable 10 Gbps data rate across a 7 m distance with minimal signal degradation and low latency. By using fibre optics it eliminates susceptibility to EMI and grounding issues, providing consistent performance in dense rack environments. The integrated SFP+ connectors simplify installation compared with separate transceivers and patch cords, and the pre-terminated design removes the need for field termination or polishing of fibre ends.

Suitable for

• High-speed server-to-switch connections in data centres
• Top-of-rack and end-of-row switch interconnects
• Direct connections between storage systems and host controllers
• Short-range links inside server cabinets and equipment racks

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 Gbps)
• Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+ integrated optical connectors
• Length: 7 metres optical cable
• Medium: multimode fibre with active optical components
• Form factor: SFP+ compatible small form-factor pluggable
• Typical use: short-reach interconnects inside racks and cabinets
• Latency: low, suitable for latency-sensitive applications

How to use

Power down or follow hot-plug guidelines of your equipment when inserting the SFP+ connectors. Insert one SFP+ end into the first device and the other end into the second device until the connectors latch securely. Verify link status on both devices and configure network interfaces according to your switch or server settings. No additional transceivers, patch cords or fibre termination tools are required because the cable is factory-terminated and pre-aligned for immediate use.

Recommendations

Route the 7 m cable carefully to avoid sharp bends; maintain the minimum bend radius recommended for multimode fibre to prevent attenuation. Keep the connectors clean and protected when not in use and follow manufacturer guidelines for hot-plugging and supported SFP+ modules to ensure compatibility and reliable operation.
