Cable AOC SFP+ CBO CBL-SFP+AOC-3M-BO — cable óptico activo de 3 m compatible con puertos SFP+

The AOC SFP+ Cable CBO CBL-SFP+AOC-3M-BO is a 3 m active optical cable designed for direct connection between SFP+ ports. It delivers a short-range optical link with low latency and high data throughput for use in data centers, server racks and network equipment enclosures. The cable integrates optical transceivers and a duplex fiber channel in a single assembly, simplifying installation and reducing the need for separate transceivers and patch cords.

Advantages

This active optical cable offers lossless high-speed transmission suitable for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and similar SFP+ applications, while maintaining low power consumption and minimal signal degradation over the 3 m length. The integrated design reduces connector count and physical complexity. Metal-reinforced SFP+ plugs provide a reliable mechanical fit in standard SFP+ ports and the optical medium eliminates electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable links in dense rack environments.

Suitable for

• Short-range interconnects between switches and servers within racks
• Rack-to-rack links in data center aisles
• Direct connections to network adapters or host bus adapters with SFP+ ports
• High-density network deployments where cable management and port density matter

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ plug on both ends (active optical assembly)
• Length: 3 meters
• Transmission medium: duplex optical fiber with integrated transceivers
• Data rate compatibility: designed for 10 Gbps SFP+ class links (low-latency)
• Installation type: hot-pluggable direct attach for SFP+ ports
• Interference immunity: optical link eliminates EMI concerns

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices to be linked, ensuring the connectors are aligned and fully seated until the port latch engages. No separate transceivers or additional fiber patching is required. Verify link status on connected devices and configure network interfaces according to your network settings. For removal, depress the port latch and gently withdraw the connector to avoid damaging the port.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use this 3 m active optical cable in clean, temperature-controlled rack environments. Avoid sharp bends that could exceed the cable's minimum bend radius, and keep connectors free of dust. Confirm SFP+ port compatibility with vendor documentation before deployment and monitor link state after installation.
