Cabo ótico ativo CBO SFP-AOC-10G-15M para ligações de 10 Gbit/s, 15 m de comprimento

The Active Optical Cable CBO SFP-AOC-10G-15M for 10Gbps links, 15 m length is a factory-terminated SFP+ AOC designed to provide a direct fiber connection between compatible SFP+ ports. With a fixed 15 meter length it supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet links, delivering high-speed data transfer and lower latency compared with equivalent copper cabling for medium-distance interconnects. The cable is intended for use in data centers and network racks where SFP+ AOC modules are supported, simplifying installation by eliminating separate transceivers and fiber patch cords.

Advantages

The AOC design integrates transceiver optics and fiber into a single, lightweight assembly, reducing connector count and potential points of failure. Its fixed length and pre-terminated SFP+ plugs ensure consistent signal integrity and predictable performance at 10 Gbps. The optical medium reduces electromagnetic interference and heat generation compared with copper alternatives, contributing to stable throughput and lower power consumption at the link level.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between switches, routers and servers with SFP+ ports
• Top-of-rack and end-of-row connections in data centers
• High-bandwidth storage networks and aggregation links
• Short- to medium-distance backbone links inside server rooms and comms cabinets

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ active optical cable with factory-terminated SFP+ connectors
• Supported data rate: 10 Gbps per channel
• Length: 15 meters (fixed)
• Optical medium: multimode/mode-optimized fibre within AOC assembly
• Typical latency: low, suitable for latency-sensitive applications
• Operating environment: designed for rack and data center indoor use

How to use

Install the SFP-AOC-10G-15M by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the networking devices until it latches. Ensure both ends are fully seated and that the link modules on the devices are compatible with SFP+ AOC assemblies. No additional transceivers or patch cords are required; the cable is ready to carry 10Gbps traffic once the devices negotiate link parameters. Monitor port status on connected devices to confirm link up and check firmware compatibility if a link does not establish.

Recommendations

Use this AOC indoors in controlled temperature environments typical of data centers and server rooms. Avoid tight bends and excessive pulling on the cable assembly; observe minimum bend radius guidelines to preserve optical performance. Verify compatibility with switch and server vendors’ supported AOC lists and keep device firmware up to date for reliable 10Gbps operation.
