Cabo ótico ativo SFP+ CBO SFP-AOC-10G-5M — 10 Gbit/s, 5 m

CBO SFP-AOC-10G-5M is a 5-meter SFP+ active optical cable that supports a 10 Gbps data rate for direct connections between SFP+ ports on switches, servers and storage devices. The integrated design removes the need for separate transceivers and fiber patch cords, simplifying cabling and reducing component count in rack and data center environments. The cable is intended for short-reach high-speed links where low latency and reliable connectivity are required.

Advantages

The active optical cable provides a compact, all-in-one solution for 10 Gbps links with reduced insertion loss compared with multi-component optical assemblies. Its pre-terminated SFP+ connectors ensure consistent electrical and optical performance while minimizing installation time. The 5 m length balances reach and manageability within racks, and the optical medium delivers immunity to electromagnetic interference and lower heat dissipation compared with equivalent copper options.

Suitable for

• Direct server-to-switch or switch-to-switch connections in racks
• Top-of-rack and end-of-row links in data centers
• High-density network aggregation and uplink ports
• Short-distance storage area network (SAN) interconnects

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor with integrated active optical transceiver
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Length: 5 meters
• Medium: multimode active optical fiber
• Latency: low propagation delay suitable for low-latency applications
• Compatibility: hot-pluggable SFP+ ports on compliant switches, servers and storage devices

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port until the latch engages. Ensure that connected devices are powered and properly configured for 10 Gbps operation. Monitor link status indicators on the devices to verify link establishment. For device firmware or vendor compatibility, consult switch or server documentation if link negotiation does not complete automatically.

Recommendations

Route the cable within rack cable management pathways to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer. Use this active optical cable for short-reach, high-speed links where electromagnetic immunity and reduced heat are required. When replacing or extending links, verify SFP+ port settings and firmware compatibility to ensure proper operation.
