Cabo ótico ativo CBO AOC-S-S-10G-50M-BO 50 m SFP+ 10 Gbit/s

CBO AOC-S-S-10G-50M-BO is a 50 metre active optical cable with SFP+ connectors engineered for 10 Gbit/s links. It provides a factory-terminated, single-cable solution for short- to medium-reach interconnects between servers, switches and storage systems. The cable combines optical transceivers and fibre in a single assembly to deliver consistent 10Gb throughput with low latency and immunity to electromagnetic interference, while reducing power consumption compared with equivalent copper links over similar distances.

Advantages

The active optical construction reduces signal loss over the 50 m span and eliminates the need for separate transceivers, simplifying installation and inventory. SFP+ connector compatibility ensures plug-and-play interoperability with equipment that supports standard SFP+ ports. The optical medium provides resistance to EMI and galvanic isolation, improving link reliability in dense rack and data centre environments. Lower power dissipation compared with copper DACs helps reduce thermal load in racks.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch 10Gb interconnects within data centres
• Connection between top-of-rack switches and aggregation or spine switches
• Storage network links and SAN patching over short to medium distances
• Environments requiring EMI immunity and electrical isolation

Key specifications

• Cable type: active optical cable with integrated transceivers
• Connector type: SFP+ on both ends
• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Length: 50 m
• Latency: low, suitable for latency-sensitive applications
• Power: lower power consumption compared with equivalent copper direct-attach cables
• Immunity: optical medium provides EMI resistance and galvanic isolation

How to use

Install by inserting the SFP+ connectors into compatible SFP+ ports on network devices following standard hot-plug procedures. Ensure both ends are properly seated and secured in their cages or slots. No separate transceiver modules are required; the cable assembly provides the optical interface. Verify link status on connected devices and confirm negotiated speed is 10 Gbit/s. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress to preserve optical performance.

Recommendations

Store and handle the cable according to manufacturer guidelines: avoid bending below the minimum bend radius, protect connector endfaces from contamination, and perform endface cleaning when necessary. Use the cable for in-building, rack-to-rack and intra-data centre connections where a 50 m 10Gb link is required and SFP+ ports are available.
