CBO AOC SFP+ BlueOptics BO353503J15M 10G Active Optical kabel, 15 m

The CBO AOC SFP+ BlueOptics BO353503J15M 10G Active Optical Cable, 15 m is a fixed duplex SFP+ active optical cable designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links. This 15-meter AOC integrates optical transceivers and multimode fibre in a single assembly that plugs directly into SFP+ ports on switches, servers and storage systems. The cable delivers low latency and immunity to electromagnetic interference, providing a simplified alternative to separate transceivers and patch fibres in data centre and enterprise network environments.

Advantages

This BlueOptics 10G AOC offers plug-and-play installation with no separate transceiver modules required, reducing component count and simplifying inventory. The integrated design lowers signal degradation risks from connectors and patching, while the optical link provides immunity to EMI and stable performance over the 15 m reach. Compact SFP+ form factor makes it compatible with a wide range of network devices that accept SFP+ active optical connections.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch uplinks in data centres and server rooms
• Switch-to-switch connections within rack and across adjacent racks
• High-speed connections to storage arrays and SAN equipment
• Environments sensitive to electromagnetic interference

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gigabit per second (10G)
• Form factor: SFP+ fixed duplex active optical cable
• Length: 15 metres
• Transmission medium: multimode optical fibre integrated in AOC assembly
• Latency: low latency suitable for server and storage interconnects
• EMI immunity: optical transmission avoids electromagnetic interference
• Compatibility: designed for devices with SFP+ ports supporting AOC modules

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector end into the corresponding SFP+ port on the network devices until it latches. Confirm that both ends are securely seated and that the host devices recognise the link. No separate transceiver installation or fibre cabling is required. For initial deployment, verify device compatibility with SFP+ active optical cables and check link status LEDs or management interfaces to confirm a stable 10G connection.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturers minimum bend radius for multimode fibre. Keep the integrated connectors dust-free when not in use by replacing protective caps. Use the 15 m length within rack-to-rack or equipment-to-equipment runs; for longer distances consider other optical transceiver and fibre options. Always verify firmware and hardware compatibility in mixed-vendor environments before wide deployment.
