Cabo ótico ativo AOC CBO SFP+ SFP-AOC-10G-30M 10G 30m

The AOC CBO SFP+ Active Optical Cable SFP-AOC-10G-30M 10G 30m is a factory-terminated SFP+ direct-attach optical link that provides 10 Gbps connectivity over a fixed 30-metre multimode optical cable. It integrates active optical transceivers into a single assembly, eliminating the need for separate modules and patch cords while delivering low latency and reduced power consumption compared with electrical copper links. The cable is designed for short-range interconnects in data centres and enterprise networks, suitable for connecting switches, servers and storage systems in rack-to-rack and row-level topologies.

Advantages

This AOC offers reliable 10 Gigabit performance over a consistent 30 m reach, with integrated SFP+ connectors that simplify installation and reduce the number of field-terminated connections. The optical design reduces electromagnetic interference and heat generation versus equivalent copper cables, while the active components ensure signal integrity over the multimode fibre. The fixed-cable format lowers inventory complexity and removes compatibility issues associated with separate transceivers and patch cords.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10 Gbps interconnects between network switches
• Server-to-switch and storage-to-switch connections within a data centre row
• Rack-to-rack links in enterprise network closets
• High-density top-of-rack deployments requiring low-latency links

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ form-factor integrated connectors
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Cable type: Active optical multimode cable
• Maximum length: 30 metres
• Latency: low-latency optical transmission suitable for high-throughput environments
• Power: reduced power consumption compared with equivalent copper direct-attach copper cables
• Compatibility: designed for SFP+ ports supporting 10G direct-attach optical links

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the networking devices until it clicks into place, observing proper handling to avoid stress on the cable bend radius and connector latches. Ensure network ports are powered down if recommended by the device manufacturer before hot-plugging; otherwise follow the host device hot-plug guidance. After installation, verify link status and speed through device management interfaces and perform any required network configuration for 10 Gbps operation.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and sources of mechanical strain, maintain bend radius specifications for multimode fibre, and keep the integrated connectors free from dust. Use in ambient conditions and within device port specifications; check switch or server vendor documentation for supported SFP+ optical cable types to ensure full interoperability.
