Cavo ottico attivo AOC CBO SFP+ BlueOptics BO353503J7M 10Gbps 7m

The AOC CBO SFP+ BlueOptics BO353503J7M 10Gbps Active Optical Cable 7m is a fixed-length SFP+ cable engineered for short-reach high-speed interconnects. Combining an integrated optical transceiver and duplex fiber assembly in a single cable, it eliminates the need for separate transceivers or fiber patch cords. The 7-meter active optical cable supports 10 gigabit per second links between servers, switches and storage devices while offering reduced latency and electrical interference compared with copper alternatives.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC provides a reliable single-cable solution that simplifies deployment and reduces component count in rack and data center environments. With native SFP+ form factor connectors on both ends, it ensures hot-pluggable compatibility with SFP+ ports and delivers consistent 10Gbps performance over the fixed 7 m length. The optical medium lowers power consumption and electromagnetic interference, and the pre-terminated construction removes the need for field termination or fiber patching.

Suitable for

• Top-of-rack switch to server connections
• Short-reach switch-to-switch links within a data hall
• High-speed uplinks for storage arrays and SAN systems
• Rack consolidation where space and cable management are important

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ on both ends (active optical cable)
• Data rate: 10 Gbps (full duplex)
• Length: 7 meters fixed
• Medium: Multimode active optical fiber with integrated transceivers
• Latency: Low-latency optical link suitable for server and switch interconnects
• Power: Lower power consumption compared with equivalent copper DACs
• Compatibility: Designed for SFP+ ports supporting active optical cables

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices until it latches. Ensure that devices are powered down or accept hot-plug operations per equipment guidelines, then verify link status via device LEDs or management interfaces. No additional transceivers or fiber patching is required; the integrated cable is ready to operate once physically connected and auto-negotiation completes at 10 Gbps.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain and maintain specified minimum bend radius. Use in rack and data center environments for short-reach 10GbE links; verify device compatibility with active optical cables and keep connectors clean to ensure optimal optical performance.
