Cabo ótico ativo SFP+ CBO SFP-AOC-10G-5M-NV-BO 10G, 5 m

The CBO SFP+ Active Optical Cable SFP-AOC-10G-5M-NV-BO 10G, 5 m is a factory-terminated active optical cable designed for direct SFP+ connections at 10 Gbit/s over a 5-metre optical link. It replaces separate transceivers and fibre patch cords by providing an integrated cable with SFP+ connectors at both ends, enabling straightforward rack-to-rack or switch-to-server interconnects in data centre environments. The cable supports low-latency signalling and reduces cabling bulk compared with traditional copper or multi-piece fibre assemblies.

Advantages

The active optical construction delivers 10 Gbit/s bandwidth over a 5 m distance while keeping weight and thickness low. Factory termination ensures consistent optical performance and eliminates in-field fibre splicing or connector mating. The integrated SFP+ connectors simplify installation and inventory management, and the reduced cable diameter and flexibility improve airflow and cable routing in dense racks.

Suitable for

• High-speed connections between switches in the same rack or adjacent racks
• Server-to-switch links requiring 10 Gbit/s bandwidth
• Storage network interconnects and SAN uplinks
• Data centre cable consolidation where low latency and small cable volume are priorities

Key specifications

• Nominal data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Cable type: active optical cable (AOC) with factory-terminated SFP+ connectors
• Length: 5 metres
• Connector form factor: SFP+ on both ends
• Performance focus: low latency, suitable for high-density rack installations
• Physical characteristics: lightweight, reduced diameter for improved airflow

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into compatible SFP+ ports on switches, servers or storage devices until the connector latches. Ensure both endpoints support SFP+ active optical cable modules and that ports are configured for 10 Gbit/s operation if manual configuration is required. Monitor link indicators on connected equipment to verify successful link establishment. For cable routing, avoid tight bends and secure the cable to prevent stress on the connectors.

Recommendations

Handle the active optical cable by the connector housings when inserting or removing; avoid pulling on the fibre portion. Maintain bend radius guidelines and keep the cable away from sources of mechanical abrasion. Use the cable within the recommended operating temperature range of connected equipment and verify interoperability with the specific switch and server models in your environment before large-scale deployment.
