Cabo ótico ativo CBO SFP-AOC-10G-10M Marconi 10 Gbit/s SFP+ 10 m

Active Optical Cable CBO Marconi SFP-AOC-10G-10M is a 10-metre SFP+ AOC designed for 10Gbps short-reach connections. Intended for direct attach between switches, servers and storage systems, this optical cable delivers low latency and immunity to electromagnetic interference, while reducing cable bulk compared to copper DAC alternatives. The integrated SFP+ connectors make it compatible with devices that accept SFP+ transceivers for a simple plug-and-play installation.

Advantages

The cable provides reliable 10Gbps bandwidth over a 10 m distance with minimal signal loss and low power consumption. Its optical construction eliminates susceptibility to electrical noise and ground loop issues common with copper links. The compact, lightweight design reduces rack clutter and simplifies cable management in dense data centre and enterprise network environments.

Suitable for

• Short-reach 10Gbps links between network switches
• Server-to-switch or server-to-storage connections in rack installations
• High-density top-of-rack and spine-leaf architectures
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Connector type: SFP+ form factor
• Cable type: Active optical cable, 10 metres length
• Reach: Short-reach data centre/enterprise links (10 m)
• Latency: Low latency design suitable for high-performance switching
• EMI immunity: Optical transmission eliminates electromagnetic interference

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into the SFP+ port of the corresponding devices until it clicks. Ensure both connected devices support SFP+ direct-attach or SFP+ AOC modules and verify link speed settings are configured for 10Gbps if required. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and secure it with cable management accessories to maintain minimum bend radius and prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, maintain a minimum bend radius as specified by the manufacturer and avoid repeated flexing near the connectors. Use in clean rack environments and verify firmware or compatibility notes of network equipment if persistent link issues occur.
