CBO SFP+ actieve optische kabel 10G 30m SFP-AOC-10G-30M

CBO SFP+ Active Optical Cable 10G 30m SFP-AOC-10G-30M is a factory-terminated active optical direct-attach solution for short-reach 10 Gigabit Ethernet links. Designed for use with SFP+ ports, the 30-meter cable combines fiber optics with integrated transceivers to deliver low-latency, high-bandwidth connectivity while reducing bulk and weight compared with equivalent copper assemblies. The cable provides electrical isolation between devices and supports typical data center interconnects such as switch-to-switch, switch-to-server and top-of-rack connections.

Advantages

The CBO SFP+ AOC reduces cable management complexity by eliminating separate transceivers and patch cords, enabling cleaner rack layouts and simpler deployment. Active optics ensure signal integrity over 30 meters with minimal latency and low power consumption compared with longer-range optical transceivers. Its compact SFP+ form factor is compatible with standard SFP+ cages and cages with SFP+ ports, offering plug-and-play installation and predictable optical performance without field termination.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet short-reach links in data centers
• Switch-to-switch interconnects and fabric links
• Server connections to top-of-rack or end-of-row switches
• Environments requiring electrical isolation between network devices

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps per channel, full-duplex
• Length: 30 meters
• Interface: SFP+ plug-and-play form factor
• Media type: Active optical cable with integrated transceivers
• Latency: low, suitable for short-reach, low-latency applications
• Power: low-power active optics (typical for SFP+ AOCs)
• Compatibility: standard SFP+ ports supporting 10G Ethernet

How to use

For installation, ensure both networking devices have compatible SFP+ ports and are powered off or follow hot-swap guidelines from the equipment vendor. Insert each SFP+ connector of the active optical cable into the corresponding SFP+ cage until it latches securely. Power up devices and verify link status using the switch or server management interface. No field termination or additional transceivers are required; the cable is pre-terminated and factory-tested for interoperability.

Recommendations

Place the cable through cable management channels to avoid tight bends and maintain the minimum bend radius specified by the device vendor. Verify firmware compatibility and port configurations on both ends when connecting devices from different manufacturers. For best results in data center deployments, label both ends for port mapping and periodically inspect connectors for dust or contamination before insertion.
