Cable óptico activo SFP+ CBO SFP-AOC-10G-50M 10G, 50 m, LC

Active Optical Cable CBO SFP-AOC-10G-50M 10G, 50 m, LC is an SFP+ compatible 10 Gigabit direct-attach optical link with LC terminations and a 50‑metre reach. It is engineered to deliver high-throughput, low-latency connections between switches, servers and storage systems in data center and campus environments. The cable integrates optical transceivers into a fixed assembly to eliminate separate module and patch cable components, offering a compact footprint and simplified deployment for short‑to‑medium 10G links.

Advantages

The AOC design provides immunity to electromagnetic interference and removes the need for fiber transceiver modules plus separate patch cords, reducing component count and assembly time. Built to SFP+ mechanical and electrical specifications, the cable ensures compatibility with SFP+ ports while maintaining low latency and stable signal integrity over the full 50 m length. LC connectors on both ends support standard duplex optical interfaces commonly used in networking equipment.

Suitable for

• Top-of-rack or end-of-row switch interconnects in data centers
• Server-to-switch connections within racks and across adjacent rooms
• Storage area network links and aggregation between network switches
• Campus backbone segments requiring consistent 10G performance

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gigabit per second (10G)
• Connector type: LC duplex
• Form factor: SFP+ compatible active optical cable
• Cable length: 50 metres
• Transmission medium: multimode optical fiber enabling active optical link
• Typical latency: low propagation delay suitable for latency-sensitive applications
• Operating environment: designed for indoor data center and campus use

How to use

Install the AOC by inserting each SFP+ end into the corresponding SFP+ ports on your networking devices until the latch engages. Ensure both devices support SFP+ AOC assemblies and that port settings (speed/duplex) are configured for 10G operation if required. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical stress; the integrated assembly removes the need for additional transceivers or patch cords, simplifying rack cable management. Power on the connected devices and verify link LEDs and interface status in the device management interface.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, avoid sharp bends and kinks in the cable, maintain a bend radius consistent with manufacturer guidelines, and keep the LC connector endfaces clean. Use the 50 m length for short-to-medium links inside buildings; for longer distances consider appropriate fiber transceivers and cabling. Confirm device compatibility with SFP+ AOC assemblies in vendor documentation before deployment.
