Cavo ottico attivo SFP+ CBO SFP-AOC-10G-10M 10 m, 10 Gbit/s

The BlueOptics SFP+ Active Optical Cable CBO SFP-AOC-10G-10M is a fixed 10 m cable engineered for 10 Gbps links between compatible SFP+ ports. Designed for short- to mid-range connections in data centers, server rooms and network racks, this active optical cable integrates transceiver electronics into a single-cable assembly to eliminate separate fiber transceivers and simplify cross-connections. The product delivers low latency and stable 10G performance while reducing cable bulk and easing cable management in dense networking environments.

Advantages

This SFP+ active optical cable combines optical transmission and integrated electronics to provide a plug-and-play 10 Gbps connection without separate modules or additional fiber patching. The fixed length decreases the need for spare transceivers and reduces clutter in rack environments. Low power consumption and negligible signal loss over the 10 m span help maintain throughput and reduce thermal load on networking equipment. Compatibility with standard SFP+ cages enables straightforward installation and predictable performance.

Suitable for

• Switch-to-switch 10G uplinks within the same equipment room
• Server-to-switch connections in rack environments
• Interconnects between storage arrays and host adapters supporting SFP+
• High-density patching scenarios where consolidated cable routing is needed

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ compliant optical cable assembly
• Data rate: 10 Gbps full duplex
• Length: fixed 10 meters
• Modulation: optical electrical conversion with integrated transceiver electronics
• Latency: low propagation delay suitable for latency-sensitive links
• Connector type: SFP+ plug ends for direct port insertion
• Power: low power consumption for active optical operation

How to use

Insert each SFP+ plug end into the corresponding SFP+ port on host devices until the connector latches. Ensure both devices support SFP+ active optical cable connectivity and that SFP+ ports are enabled in device firmware or operating systems. No external transceivers, patch cords or fiber connectors are required; the fixed 10 m assembly provides a direct optical link once seated. Monitor link status through your switch or server management interface to confirm 10 Gbps operation and correct any port configuration if needed.

Recommendations

Use the cable in clean, indoor rack or cabinet environments; avoid sharp bends and maintain manufacturer-recommended minimum bend radius to preserve optical performance. When installing in high-density racks, plan routing to minimize stress on connectors and allow airflow around equipment. Verify compatibility with device vendor compatibility lists if optical vendor locking is a concern.
