CBO cavo ottico attivo InfiniBand SFP+ 7 m, modello 10G-SFPP-AOC-0701-BO, guaina arancione

CBO 10G-SFPP-AOC-0701-BO is a 7-meter InfiniBand SFP+ active optical cable with an orange jacket designed to deliver stable 10 Gigabit connections between compatible SFP+ ports. The cable is pre-terminated with SFP+ plugs and implements active optical transceivers inside the assembly, enabling plug-and-play installation without separate transceiver modules. Its optical design reduces latency and eliminates susceptibility to electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for short-reach links in data centers, switch-to-switch connections and server uplinks.

Advantages

The active optical assembly provides consistent 10 Gb performance over a 7 m reach while keeping power consumption and heat generation lower than some copper alternatives. The orange jacket increases visual identification in cabling runs. Pre-terminated SFP+ ends simplify installation, reduce rack space occupied by transceivers, and avoid manual fiber termination. The optical medium ensures immunity to EMI and stable signal integrity in dense rack environments.

Suitable for

• Data center switch-to-switch links and top-of-rack uplinks
• Server uplinks and storage network connections
• High-throughput InfiniBand and Ethernet SFP+ ports in short-reach deployments
• Environments requiring low-latency, EMI-resistant connectivity

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ to SFP+ active optical cable
• Data rate: 10 Gigabit per second (10 Gb/s)
• Length: 7 meters
• Cable type: Active optical assembly with integrated optical modules
• Jacket color: Orange for easy identification
• Compatibility: Fits standard SFP+ ports supporting AOC modules
• Signal characteristics: Low latency, immune to electromagnetic interference

How to use

Insert each SFP+ end into the corresponding SFP+ port on network devices until the latch engages. Ensure both connected ports are powered and configured to operate at 10 Gb/s or support SFP+ AOC modules. No separate transceiver installation or fiber termination is required. Verify link status via device LEDs or management interface and confirm negotiated link speed and duplex. For removal, depress the SFP+ latch and pull the module straight out to avoid damaging the connector.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Keep the orange jacket visible in cable management paths to simplify identification. Use the 7 m active optical cable for short-reach interconnects where optical immunity to EMI and low latency are priorities. Ensure device compatibility with active optical cables and SFP+ modules before deployment.
