Cavo ottico attivo BlueOptics SFP-10G-AOC-7M 10GBASE-SR 7 m SFP+

Active Optical Cable BlueOptics SFP-10G-AOC-7M 10GBASE-SR 7 m SFP+ is a pre-terminated SFP+ direct-attach optical cable designed for short-reach high-speed interconnects in data centres and server rooms. The 7-metre AOC delivers 10 Gbps full-duplex bandwidth over optical fibre, providing electrical isolation between connected devices and reducing electromagnetic interference compared with copper links. The compact SFP+ connector form factor allows direct insertion into compatible 10GBASE-SR SFP+ ports on switches, servers and storage arrays, simplifying installation and reducing cable bulk.

Advantages

The cable offers high data throughput at low latency suitable for 10GbE environments, while its optical construction removes sensitivity to ground loops and EMI. Being pre-terminated and polarity-correct, it eliminates field termination and reduces installation time. The 7 m length balances reach and manageability for rack-to-rack or within-rack connections, and the SFP+ connectors ensure wide compatibility with network equipment that supports 10GBASE-SR SFP+ modules.

How to use

Install the Active Optical Cable by inserting each SFP+ connector into corresponding 10GBASE-SR compatible SFP+ ports on the devices to be connected. Ensure both devices support the SFP+ form factor and 10GBASE-SR signalling. Confirm secure latching of the connectors and route the cable to avoid sharp bends; respect the manufacturer minimum bend radius for optical fibre. No additional transceivers or field termination are required. After installation, verify link status and speed on the connected equipment's management interface.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, avoid tight bending and excessive pulling; maintain recommended bend radius and strain relief. Use for short-reach links within racks or across adjacent racks where 7 metres is appropriate. Check device compatibility and port settings (speed/duplex and auto-negotiation) before deployment, and monitor link status after installation.
