SFP+ kabel BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-20M-NK-BO 20m stekker/stekker

The BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-20M-NK-BO is a 20 m SFP+ active optical cable (AOC) with SFP+ male connectors on both ends, designed for high-speed 10 Gbps data links over multimode fiber. It follows MSA-compliant SFP+ form factor and provides a pre-assembled optical connection for short-reach interconnects in racks, server rows and compact network environments where cable management and low latency are important.

Advantages

The cable delivers 10G data transmission across a 20 meter active optical link, eliminating the need for separate transceivers and patch cords. As an AOC with SFP+ to SFP+ interfaces, it reduces connector losses and eases installation while maintaining consistent optical performance. The integrated optical transmitter and receiver on each end enable simultaneous send/receive operation and support standard high-speed Ethernet and other 10G protocols. Digital diagnostic (DDM/DOM) functionality is supported when the host hardware provides the necessary interface, enabling remote monitoring of optical parameters.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between SFP+ ports within racks and adjacent equipment rows
• Connectivity between switches, routers, storage controllers and servers supporting SFP+
• Short-reach 10G Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet links (up to 20 m)

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ male to SFP+ male
• Length: 20 meters
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbps
• Medium: active optical cable using multimode fiber
• Form factor: SFP+ MSA compliant
• Monitoring: supports digital diagnostic (DDM/DOM) when host hardware allows

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ slot on the devices to be linked, ensuring the module is fully seated and latched according to the device vendor’s instructions. Verify that both devices support SFP+ AOC modules and the intended 10G protocol. If available, enable or check digital diagnostics via the host system to monitor link parameters. No separate transceivers or patch panels are required; route the pre-assembled cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it to prevent strain on the connectors.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, avoid tight bends and mechanical stress on the cable, confirm compatibility with the equipment vendor’s SFP+ port requirements, and ensure the host supports DDM/DOM if diagnostic monitoring is required. Use the AOC for short-reach 10G links within racks or adjacent rows rather than long-distance runs.
