CBO AOC BlueOptics BO353503J15M 10G Cable óptico activo 15 m

The CBO AOC BlueOptics BO353503J15M 10G Active Optical Cable 15 m is a factory-assembled, fixed-length fiber cable that integrates transceivers and multimode optical fiber in a single unit. Designed for direct connection between compatible SFP+ ports, this 15-metre active optical cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet links with low latency and reduced power consumption compared with equivalent copper cabling. The all-in-one construction removes the need for separate SFP+ transceivers and patch cords, simplifying rack-to-rack and intra-rack connectivity in data centre and enterprise environments.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC provides stable 10G performance over a 15 m link while reducing space requirements and thermal load in network equipment. The integrated design ensures consistent optical alignment and eliminates connector mating issues associated with separate transceivers and patch panels. Energy efficiency and lower electromagnetic interference make the cable suitable for dense deployments where signal integrity and operational costs are important. The pre-terminated assembly also shortens installation time and reduces the risk of handling damage to delicate fiber connectors.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet links between switches, servers and storage arrays
• Short- to mid-range rack-to-rack and intra-rack connections in data centres
• High-density network environments requiring low-latency, low-power links
• Environments where simplified cabling and reduced installation time are desired

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Length: 15 metres
• Form factor: Active optical cable with integrated SFP+ interfaces
• Optical type: Multimode active optical link
• Typical applications: Ethernet switching, server interconnects, storage connectivity
• Power and latency: Lower power consumption and latency compared with equivalent copper twinax solutions

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the network devices until it latches; no separate transceiver or fiber patch cord is required. Verify link negotiation and speed settings on connected devices according to their network configuration. For best signal integrity, avoid tight bends and excessive pulling force on the cable, and route the cable through appropriate cable management to prevent mechanical stress. Routine checks of link status and device logs will confirm proper operation after installation.

Recommendations

Store and handle the AOC in a clean environment and avoid sharp bends (observe the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius). Use the cable for intended SFP+ compatible ports and within the specified 15 m length. For mixed-vendor environments, verify interoperability and firmware compatibility if link issues occur.
