Cable óptico activo SFP+ CBO 10G 1m para Sonicwall (SFP-AOC-10G-1M)

Active Optical Cable CBO 10G 1m for Sonicwall (SFP-AOC-10G-1M) is a 1‑metre SFP+ direct-attach cable that delivers 10 Gbps connectivity for compatible Sonicwall SFP+ ports. The cable integrates optical transceivers and a high-bandwidth multimode fiber in a single assembly, eliminating the need for separate modules and patch cords. It is intended for short-reach, high-speed links between switches, firewalls and servers in data centers, wiring closets and equipment racks.

Advantages

This SFP+ Active Optical Cable provides low-latency, low-power optical transmission with the convenience of a plug-and-play direct-attach solution. Its integrated design reduces component count and simplifies installation, while the one-metre length minimizes excess cable in dense rack environments. The cable supports 10 Gbps line rates and is engineered to meet the electrical and optical requirements of SFP+ ports, offering reliable connectivity for short-reach links.

Suitable for

• Rack-to-rack connections inside data centers
• Interconnects between firewalls and aggregation switches
• Server-to-switch links in network closets
• Short-reach 10 Gbps uplinks and SAN connections

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ active optical cable (integrated transceivers)
• Length: 1 metre
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Connector type: SFP+ metal cage compatible plugs
• Transmission medium: multimode optical fiber within AOC assembly
• Typical reach: short-reach links (designed for within-rack and adjacent-rack distances)
• Power consumption: low-power optical operation suitable for switch and firewall ports
• Compatibility: designed for Sonicwall SFP+ ports supporting direct-attach AOC modules

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices to be linked, ensuring the connectors click into the metal cages. After physical installation, verify link status and speed on both devices using their management interfaces. No separate optical transceivers or patch cords are required; the single-cable assembly contains the optical elements. For best results, avoid bending the cable sharply and ensure both ports support SFP+ AOC operation.

Recommendations

Install in clean rack environments and route the cable to avoid tight bends or crush points. Verify firmware and compatibility notes on Sonicwall devices before deployment, and test the link at installation to confirm 10 Gbps operation and stable link status.
