Cabo ótico ativo SFP+ CBO SFP-AOC-10G-20M 10G 20m para F5

CBO SFP-AOC-10G-20M is an SFP+ active optical cable that delivers 10 Gbps data throughput over a fixed 20 m multimode link, designed for compatibility with F5 network ports. The solution integrates transceiver functionality into a pre-terminated cable assembly to provide a single, low-latency connection between switches, servers and storage devices. With a compact SFP+ connector form factor and a 20-meter reach, this cable simplifies high-speed connections in data centers, server rooms and rack-to-rack environments while reducing cabling complexity and power consumption compared to discrete transceivers plus fiber patch cords.

Advantages

The active optical cable combines transceiver electronics and fiber in a single pre-tested assembly to ensure consistent 10 Gbps link performance and reduced installation time. Its multimode fiber construction supports short- to medium-reach links with low latency and improved electromagnetic immunity. The fixed-length design eliminates connector mating variability, and the SFP+ form factor keeps compatibility with standard SFP+ ports on F5-compatible equipment. Energy-efficient optics reduce power draw compared with some copper alternatives.

Suitable for

• High-speed switch-to-switch connections in data center racks
• Server-to-switch uplinks where 10 Gbps throughput is required
• Storage area network (SAN) links and aggregation points
• Short- to medium-reach multimode fiber runs up to 20 meters

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ connector on both ends
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Length: 20 meters fixed
• Optical medium: multimode fiber
• Architecture: active optical cable with integrated transceiver electronics
• Latency: low-latency design suitable for switch and server interconnects

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both ports are powered and configured for 10 Gbps operation on the connected equipment; the cable presents as an SFP+ transceiver to the host. Avoid excessive bending of the cable near the connector ends and secure the cable to rack infrastructure to prevent strain. Verify link status and speed through the device management interface after insertion.

Recommendations

Use the cable for direct, short- to medium-distance multimode links where consistent 10 Gbps performance and reduced installation complexity are priorities. Maintain bend radius specifications for multimode fiber and avoid exposure to sharp edges or high mechanical stress. For redundancy, consider parallel cabling or link aggregation configured on the connected devices.
