CBO AOC Coriant SFP-AOC-10G-30M Cable óptico activo 10G, SFP+ a SFP+, 30 m

CBO AOC Coriant SFP-AOC-10G-30M is a 10 Gigabit Active Optical Cable with SFP+ connectors on both ends and a fixed 30 meter length. It is designed for high-speed interconnects in data centers and telecom racks, providing a direct-attach solution for switches, servers and storage arrays. The optical construction reduces electromagnetic interference and weight compared with copper twinax, while the integrated transceivers simplify link setup by presenting as standard SFP+ modules to compatible devices.

Advantages

This 10G Active Optical Cable delivers high-bandwidth, low-latency connectivity suitable for aggregation and access layer links. The pre-terminated SFP+ ends eliminate field termination and reduce installation time. Optical transmission ensures immunity to EMI and allows longer reach than copper direct-attach solutions at equivalent data rates. The fixed 30 m length provides predictable signal performance and simplified cable management in rack environments.

Suitable for

• High-speed links between top-of-rack or end-of-row switches
• Server-to-switch connections in data centers
• Storage area network interconnects requiring 10 Gbps bandwidth
• Telecom rack-to-rack connections where EMI immunity is important

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 Gbps)
• Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Length: 30 meters
• Transmission medium: multi-mode optical fiber with integrated transceivers
• Latency: low, suitable for low-latency switching and server interconnects
• EMI performance: immune to electromagnetic interference compared with copper

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into compatible SFP+ ports on networking equipment until the module latches. Ensure both ends are fully seated and that connected devices are powered and configured for 10 Gbps operation. No field termination or transceiver installation is required because the optical transceivers are integrated. Verify link status on both devices and, if necessary, adjust port settings such as speed/duplex or interface MTU according to network design.

Recommendations

Use the cable in rack environments with controlled bend radii and avoid tight bends or kinks. Keep connectors free of dust and handle by the connector housing to avoid touching the optical interfaces. Confirm device compatibility with SFP+ AOC modules and consult switch or server vendor guidance for any required firmware or port settings when deploying the cable for critical links.
