Cable óptico activo CBO SFP-AOC-10G-50M 10 Gbit/s 50 m SFP+ conexión directa

CBO SFP-AOC-10G-50M is an active optical cable (AOC) with SFP+ connectors that supports 10 Gbps data transmission over a 50-meter fiber link. The cable combines fiber optic transmission with integrated SFP+ modules on both ends to provide a direct-attach solution for high-density, short-reach interconnects. It is intended for use in data centers and enterprise campus networks where low latency, immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and compact cabling are required.

Advantages

The AOC design integrates transceiver functionality into the cable ends, eliminating the need for separate pluggable transceivers and reducing overall power consumption and heat dissipation in racks. Optical transmission ensures immunity to EMI and crosstalk while maintaining signal integrity over the full 50 m distance. SFP+ form-factor connectors provide compatibility with equipment that accepts standard SFP+ ports, enabling fast deployment and simplified inventory management.

Suitable for

• Short- to medium-reach switch-to-switch connections in data centers
• Server-to-switch uplinks within racks or across adjacent aisles
• Interconnects between routers, storage arrays and network appliances
• High-density top-of-rack and end-of-row cabling environments

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps full duplex
• Length: 50 meters
• Connector type: SFP+ on both ends (integrated modules)
• Transmission medium: multimode optical fiber (active cable)
• Latency: low, suitable for low-latency networking
• EMI immunity: optical transmission eliminates electrical interference

How to use

Install the CBO SFP-AOC-10G-50M by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on network switches, servers or other compatible devices until the latch engages. No separate transceivers or fiber patch cords are needed; the cable provides a single integrated link. Verify link status and speed on connected equipment and ensure proper cable routing to avoid sharp bends or mechanical stress. For hot-pluggable systems, follow device-specific hot-swap guidelines to prevent port or system issues.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical compression. Maintain minimum bend radius specified by the manufacturer, keep the cable away from sources of mechanical damage, and confirm compatibility with SFP+ ports on your networking equipment. Use AOC solutions for short- to medium-distance runs where EMI immunity and reduced rack power/heat are priorities.
