Lightwin 10G SFP+ cavo ottico attivo 20m per HP Aruba (LWO-AOC-SFPP-20M-HPE)

For data centers and high-density rack environments, the Lightwin LWO-AOC-SFPP-20M-HPE offers a 20-meter active optical cable that eliminates the bulk and fragility of copper twinax while delivering full 10Gbps throughput. Unlike passive DACs limited to 7 meters, this AOC integrates SFP+ transceivers at both ends, ensuring reliable signal integrity over longer distances with minimal power draw.

Highlights

• 10 Gigabit per second data rate for bandwidth-intensive applications
• Active optical cable with integrated SFP+ connectors on both ends
• 20-meter length (65.6 ft) ideal for rack-to-rack and server-to-switch links
• Compatible with HP Aruba SFP+/XFP ports
• Low power consumption: under 1W per end
• Multi-mode fiber construction with PVC jacket for durability
• Hot-swappable and compliant with SFF-8431/SFF-8432
• Supports 10G Ethernet and Fibre Channel protocols
• Operating temperature range: 0°C to 70°C
• RoHS compliant

In daily use

Deploying this cable is straightforward: plug the SFP+ ends into compatible HP Aruba switches, NICs, or servers and the link comes up instantly. The thin 3.0mm diameter and flexible PVC jacket simplify cable management in crowded racks, while the optical design provides immunity to electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable connections even in electrically noisy environments.
