Cable de red BlueOptics SFP-XG-D-AOC-50M SFP+ 10GBASE-SR 50 m azul

The BlueOptics SFP-XG-D-AOC-50M SFP+ 10GBASE-SR 50m Blue is an active optical cable (AOC) engineered for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and compatible high-speed interconnects. At 50 meters length, this SFP+ cable supports short-range multimode links with low latency and consistent signal integrity, intended for connections between switches, servers, storage arrays and other network devices in data centers and enterprise environments. The cable features a blue outer jacket for easy identification and a factory-terminated SFP+ form factor for plug-and-play installation.

Advantages

The active optical design delivers stable 10GBASE-SR performance over multimode fiber with reduced electromagnetic interference compared to copper alternatives. AOC construction offers lower power consumption and lighter weight than equivalent copper twinax cables, while preserving high bandwidth and low latency necessary for server-to-switch and switch-to-switch links. The factory-terminated SFP+ connectors ensure consistent optical alignment and simplified deployment.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in data centers
• Interconnects between servers, top-of-rack switches and storage systems
• High-density rack deployments where cable weight and space matter
• Environments requiring immunity to electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ active optical cable
• Data rate: 10 Gbps (10GBASE-SR compatible)
• Length: 50 meters
• Optical type: multimode fiber AOC
• Connector: SFP+ plug on both ends, factory-terminated
• Color: blue outer jacket for identification
• Typical applications: Ethernet and compatible InfiniBand short-range links

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the SFP+ ports of the devices to be linked, ensuring the latch engages and the connector is fully seated. Verify that both devices recognize the SFP+ module and negotiate a 10 Gbps link. Route the active optical cable carefully to avoid tight bends or physical stress; follow device manufacturer guidelines for port handling and hot-plug operations. No separate transceiver modules or fiber termination are required, as the cable is factory-terminated and ready for immediate use.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, avoid bending the cable beyond the specified minimum bend radius, keep connectors clean and free of dust, and verify multimode compatibility with your network equipment. Use the blue jacket as a visual aid for cable management in dense installations and refer to equipment documentation for supported SFP+ AOC compatibility lists.
