AOC Cable óptico activo SFP+ CBO SFP-AOC-10G-1M 10Gbit/s 1m

AOC SFP+ Active Optical Cable CBO SFP-AOC-10G-1M 10Gbps 1m is a 1‑metre active optical cable designed for 10Gbps SFP+ ports. It provides a direct optical connection that integrates fiber and optical transceivers into a single assembly, eliminating the need for separate transceivers and patch cords. The cable is intended for short-reach, high-bandwidth links in data centers and enterprise networks, offering low latency and reduced power consumption compared with equivalent electrical copper cables.

Advantages

The active optical design delivers high data throughput with minimal signal loss over the 1 m length and ensures compatibility with SFP+ ports supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet. The cable’s integrated transceiver form factor simplifies installation and reduces rack clutter. Because it is optical, it is lightweight and immune to electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for dense cabling environments. The single‑assembly solution reduces power draw compared to discrete transceivers and separate fiber patching.

Suitable for

• Short‑reach 10GbE links between switches within a rack or adjacent racks
• Server-to-switch connections in data centers
• Storage area network (SAN) interconnects requiring low-latency links
• High-density network environments where space and cable management are critical

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor for 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Length: 1 metre
• Cable type: Active optical cable (integrated optical transceivers)
• Latency: low-latency design suitable for performance-sensitive links
• Immunity: not affected by electromagnetic interference

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the two devices to be connected. Ensure both devices are powered down or that hot‑plugging is supported by the network equipment; follow the vendor’s port insertion and removal guidelines to avoid damaging connectors. After connection, verify link status and negotiated speed in the device management interface. No separate fiber patch cords or external transceivers are required.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, use the AOC in applications within its 1 m reach and avoid excessive bending or strain on the cable assembly. Maintain clean connector areas and follow equipment manufacturer guidance for hot‑plugging and SFP+ port handling. Use in properly cooled rack environments and verify compatibility with network equipment firmware or vendor compatibility lists when necessary.
