CBO cavo ottico attivo SFP+ 10G 2m per porte SFP+

CBO Active Optical SFP+ Cable 10G 2m for SFP+ ports is a factory-integrated Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed to provide a compact, low-latency 10 Gigabit Ethernet connection for SFP+ ports. The cable combines two SFP+ transceivers with a fixed duplex fiber assembly in a 2-metre length to simplify short-reach interconnections between switches, servers and storage systems. As a single, pre-validated assembly, it eliminates the need for separate transceivers and fiber patch cords while maintaining the bandwidth and signal integrity required for data centre links.

Advantages

The integrated design of this Active Optical Cable reduces installation time and cabling clutter by replacing separate optical transceivers and patch cables with a single pre-terminated unit. Its optical transmission delivers lower power consumption compared with electrical DAC alternatives over the same reach, and the fiber-based link supports stable 10 Gbps throughput with low latency. The 2 m length provides a convenient reach for rack-to-rack or switch-to-server connections in dense networking environments.

Suitable for

• Short-reach data centre uplinks between SFP+ ports
• Switch-to-server and switch-to-switch connections in rack environments
• Storage area network links requiring 10 Gbps bandwidth
• Environments where reduced cabling complexity and lower power are priorities

Key specifications

• Interface type: SFP+ integrated Active Optical Cable
• Data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Length: 2 metres
• Cable type: duplex optical fiber with integrated SFP+ transceivers
• Latency: low-latency optical transmission suitable for short-reach links
• Power consumption: lower than equivalent electrical direct attach cables for the same distance
• Compatibility: designed for devices with SFP+ ports supporting 10G signaling

How to use

Connect each SFP+ connector on the cable into the corresponding SFP+ port on the two networking devices until the module latches. No separate transceiver installation or fibre patching is required. After insertion, verify link status and speed through device management interfaces or LED indicators. For best results, power-cycle endpoints if link negotiation does not complete automatically and check port settings for 10G operation.

Recommendations

Handle the cable by its connectors and avoid sharp bends in the optical fiber assembly. Maintain a bend radius consistent with manufacturer guidelines and keep the cable away from sources of mechanical stress or high heat. Use the 2 m length for short inter-rack or intra-rack connections and verify device compatibility with SFP+ 10G modules before deployment.
