Cavo ottico attivo SFP+ CBO SFP-AOC-10G-1M 10Gbps 1 m

Active Optical Cable CBO SFP-AOC-10G-1M 10Gbps 1m is a factory-terminated SFP+ direct attach solution that provides a 1-meter, 10 Gbps link for networking equipment equipped with SFP+ ports. Built for short-reach, high-speed connections, this Active Optical Cable integrates optical transceivers and multimode fiber in a single assembly, removing the need for separate transceivers and patch cords. The cable is intended for use in data center and rack environments where reliable, low-latency links between servers, switches and storage devices are required.

Advantages

The Active Optical Cable offers plug-and-play installation with no additional transceiver modules or fiber patching required, reducing deployment complexity. Its integrated optical design delivers electrical isolation and lower electromagnetic interference compared with copper alternatives while maintaining 10 Gbps throughput over a compact 1 m form factor. Using a single pre-terminated assembly simplifies inventory and reduces potential connection errors in dense networking environments.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch connections in data centers
• Switch-to-switch uplinks within network racks
• Storage area network (SAN) links and storage array connectivity
• High-density rack installations and blade chassis interconnects

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ small form-factor pluggable
• Data rate: 10 Gbps (full duplex)
• Cable length: 1 meter
• Signal medium: active optical assembly with integrated transceivers
• Typical reach: short-reach links within racks and adjacent racks
• Compatibility: designed for equipment with SFP+ ports supporting Active Optical Cables

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector end into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices to be linked, ensuring the connector latch engages securely. No separate transceiver or fiber patch cable is required. After seating both ends, verify link status through the host devices' network interfaces or management consoles and confirm 10 Gbps operation and expected link indicators. For hot-pluggable equipment, use standard hot-swap procedures recommended by the equipment vendor.

Recommendations

Use the cable within data center rack environments and avoid bending the cable beyond manufacturer-recommended bend radii. Ensure SFP+ ports on both ends support Active Optical Cables and check firmware or vendor compatibility lists when connecting to third-party devices. Store unused cables coiled without tight loops and maintain clean connector areas when handling to ensure reliable high-speed links.
