CBO AOC actieve optische kabel voor TP-Link SFP 10G 20m (SFP-AOC-10G-20M-TL-BO)

CBO AOC active optical cable for TP-Link SFP 10G 20m (SFP-AOC-10G-20M-TL-BO) is a 20-metre active optical cable designed for direct connection between devices with SFP+ ports. The cable supports 10 Gigabit per second data rates over a multimode optical link and provides a slim, integrated solution for short-range high-speed connections in data centers, server rooms and network racks.

Advantages

The active optical construction reduces electromagnetic interference and heat generation compared with equivalent copper direct-attach cables, while enabling low-latency 10 Gbps links. The integrated transceivers and fiber maintain signal integrity over the 20 m distance, and the plug-and-play SFP+ connectors allow straightforward installation without additional configuration. Its compact form factor simplifies cable management in dense rack environments.

Suitable for

• Inter-switch connections within racks and between adjacent racks
• Server-to-switch links in data centres and colocation facilities
• High-bandwidth uplink and aggregation ports
• Low-latency connections for virtualization and storage networks

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gigabit per second (10 Gbps)
• Length: 20 metres
• Connector type: SFP+ compliant plug-and-play optical connectors
• Medium: active multimode optical cable with integrated transceivers
• Latency: low-latency design suitable for time-sensitive traffic
• Electromagnetic performance: negligible EMI compared with copper alternatives
• Application environment: designed for data centre and enterprise network use

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the compatible SFP/SFP+ port on the network devices until the module latches. Power on the devices and verify link status through device LEDs or management interface. No additional software drivers are required for standard SFP+ ports; the cable operates as an optical link once the devices negotiate 10 Gbps. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain recommended bend radius for optical fiber to preserve signal performance.

Recommendations

Use this active optical cable for short to medium distance 10 Gbps links inside racks and between adjacent racks. Avoid repeated flexing at connector strain points, maintain a gentle bend radius, and verify compatibility with the SFP+ ports on both devices before deployment.
