Cable óptico activo SFP+ CBO SFP-AOC-10G-2M-NV-BO 10G 2 m

CBO SFP+ Active Optical Cable SFP-AOC-10G-2M-NV-BO 10G 2 m is a pre-terminated active optical link designed for direct connection between SFP+ ports. The cable supports 10 Gbps data rates over a 2 meter length and combines a compact SFP+ connector form factor with the advantages of optical transmission to maintain signal integrity and reduce electromagnetic interference. The plug-and-play design removes the need for separate transceivers and simplifies cabling for switches, servers and storage systems in data center and enterprise environments.

Advantages

The active optical cable delivers full 10 Gbps bandwidth with low latency and consistent performance over short to medium distances. Its pre-terminated construction ensures quick installation and reduces the risk of connector mismatch or assembly errors. Optical transmission reduces susceptibility to EMI and ground loop issues compared with copper alternatives, while the compact SFP+ connector saves port space on network equipment. The integrated design lowers maintenance and cable management complexity.

Suitable for

• Short-reach connections between switches and top-of-rack servers
• Interconnects for storage arrays and SAN components
• High-density data center cabling where port density and signal integrity are important
• Migration paths from copper to optical links within rack and row deployments

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Connector type: SFP+ form factor
• Cable type: Active optical cable (pre-terminated)
• Length: 2 meters
• Transmission medium: Optical fiber (single-mode/multi-mode dependent on variant)
• Typical use: Direct attach between SFP+ ports

How to use

Install the active optical cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into compatible SFP+ ports on your network devices until the latch engages. Ensure devices are powered down or follow hot-plug guidelines from equipment vendors; most SFP+ AOCs support hot-plug insertion. Confirm the ports are configured for 10 Gbps operation and verify link status via the device management interface. No separate transceiver modules or fiber termination are required due to the pre-terminated design.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; maintain bend radii recommended by the cable manufacturer. Use compatible SFP+ ports and check vendor interoperability notes for specific switch and server models. In high-density deployments label each cable and maintain documentation of port mapping to simplify maintenance and troubleshooting.
