Cabo ótico ativo SFP+ CBO Viavi SFP-AOC-10G-10M 10 m

SFP+ Active Optical Cable CBO Viavi SFP-AOC-10G-10M 10 m is a 10‑metre SFP+ active optical cable designed for 10 Gbps data transmission between SFP+ ports. The cable provides a low-latency, long‑reach interconnect for switches, servers and storage devices in data centres and enterprise networks. It is a plug‑and‑play solution compatible with standard SFP+ interfaces, enabling direct connections between racks and between adjacent network equipment without additional transceivers.

Advantages

The cable reduces power consumption compared with separate optical transceivers and fibre patch cords by integrating the optical link into a single assembly. Its active optical design extends reach beyond short passive copper links while maintaining SFP+ signaling and form factor compatibility. The solution offers consistent 10 Gbps throughput with low latency and predictable performance for high‑density deployments. Its compact SFP+ connectors simplify cable management in rack environments.

Suitable for

• Rack‑to‑rack connections in data centres
• Direct server‑to‑switch links in enterprise networks
• Interconnects between storage systems and host ports
• High‑density top‑of‑rack and spine‑leaf architectures

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ integrated active optical cable
• Length: 10 metres
• Data rate: 10 Gbps per channel
• Connector type: SFP+ at both ends
• Latency: low‑latency optical transport suitable for time‑sensitive data
• Compatibility: standard SFP+ ports supporting 10 Gbps links

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into a compatible SFP+ port until the latch engages. Ensure both ends are seated in devices that support 10 Gbps SFP+ links. No additional configuration or transceivers are required; the cable is recognized as a direct SFP+ link by most switches, servers and storage interfaces. Check device port LEDs or management software to verify link status and speed after insertion. To disconnect, press the latch and remove the connector straight out to avoid damaging the port.

Recommendations

The cable should be routed to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Use in environments within specified operating temperature ranges and avoid exposure to liquids or corrosive agents. Verify device compatibility lists if vendor lock or firmware restrictions are a concern, and test links after installation to confirm stable 10 Gbps operation.
