Cavo AOC SFP+ CBO per SonicWall SFP-AOC-10G-2M 10G 2m

BlueOptics SFP+ AOC cable CBO for SonicWall SFP-AOC-10G-2M 10G 2m is an active optical cable designed for short-reach 10 Gigabit interconnects between compatible SFP+ ports. The cable integrates optical transceivers and a fixed fiber link into a single assembly to provide a compact, low-latency connection suitable for rack-to-rack, switch-to-switch or server-to-switch links. It supports plug-and-play insertion with automatic recognition by standard SFP+ interfaces and reduces electromagnetic interference compared with copper counterparts.

Advantages

The integrated optical design delivers 10 Gbit/s throughput over a 2 meter reach while minimizing cabling bulk and heat generation. Active optical transceivers allow low power consumption and stable signal quality for short-distance high-speed links. The assembly simplifies installation by eliminating separate transceivers and fibers, and the optical medium reduces susceptibility to EMI and cross-talk in dense rack environments.

Suitable for

• Interconnecting SFP+ ports on switches and routers in data center racks
• Connecting servers to top-of-rack switches for 10G uplinks
• Short-distance high-bandwidth links in enterprise network closets
• Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is required

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ active optical cable assembly compatible with standard SFP+ ports
• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s full duplex
• Length: 2 meters
• Media: integrated optical fiber with active transceivers
• Latency: low-latency design suitable for high-throughput applications
• Power: low power consumption typical for active optical assemblies

How to use

Ensure both devices support SFP+ modules and are powered off or allow hot-plugging according to the vendor instructions. Align the SFP+ connectors with the port opening and insert until the latch engages; confirm link status in device management interfaces. No separate optics or fiber terminations are required. For removal, release the latch and pull the module straight out. Follow SonicWall and BlueOptics compatibility guidance when integrating with network equipment.

Recommendations

Use the cable for short-reach connections up to 2 m in clean rack environments. Avoid sharp bends and excessive tensile strain on the cable; maintain recommended bend radius to preserve optical performance. Verify firmware and compatibility lists of connected devices when deploying in managed networks.
