SFP+ AOC CBO (compatible con Alcatel-Lucent) SFP-AOC-10G-30M — cable óptico activo 10G, 30 m

SFP+ AOC CBO (Alcatel‑Lucent compatible) SFP-AOC-10G-30M is a direct‑attach active optical cable designed to provide 10 Gbps connectivity over a 30‑metre optical link. Compatible with Alcatel‑Lucent SFP+ ports, this BlueOptics AOC integrates SFP+ transceivers with a low‑loss multimode optical cable to deliver a compact, single‑assembly solution for short‑reach interconnects in data centers, server rooms and telecom racks. The assembly removes the need for separate transceivers and duplex patch cords while maintaining full duplex 10G performance and low latency.

Advantages

The active optical cable offers plug‑and‑play installation with automatic link negotiation for SFP+ interfaces and reduced power consumption compared with many copper alternatives. Its 30 m reach enables flexible rack placement and cross‑rack connections without introducing additional fiber patching points. The integrated design simplifies inventory and cable management, lowers mechanical wear by eliminating multiple connector pairs, and reduces the number of components required for high‑speed links.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit links between switches in adjacent or nearby racks
• Server-to-switch and storage-to-switch connections in data centers
• Telecom equipment interconnects requiring Alcatel‑Lucent SFP+ compatibility
• Short‑reach high‑throughput links where low latency is important

Key specifications

• Maximum data rate: 10 Gbps, full duplex
• Length: 30 metres
• Connector type: SFP+ form‑factor integrated transceiver ends
• Optical type: active optical cable (AOC) with multimode fiber
• Compatibility: compatible with Alcatel‑Lucent SFP+ ports
• Typical latency: low latency suitable for data center switching fabrics
• Operating environment: designed for indoor rack and cabinet use

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ end into the corresponding SFP+ port on your switch, server or storage device until the latch engages. Ensure both devices are powered and configured for 10 Gbps SFP+ links; most compatible equipment will auto‑negotiate link parameters. Route the cable within racks or across adjacent racks avoiding sharp bends and mechanical strain; follow standard cable‑management practices to prevent stress on connectors. No separate transceivers or patch cords are required.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, maintain bend radius limits specified by the manufacturer and avoid running the cable near high‑power electrical sources or strong EMI. Verify firmware or driver compatibility on both ends when using vendor‑compatible AOCs with Alcatel‑Lucent switches to ensure link stability. Use secure rack mounting and strain relief to protect the SFP+ connectors during installation and service.
