SFP+ aktívny optický kábel CBO SFP-AOC-10G-20M 10G 20m

CBO SFP-AOC-10G-20M is a 10 Gigabit SFP+ active optical cable with a fixed 20 m length, designed for short- to medium-range high-speed interconnects. The cable integrates optical transceivers in the molded SFP+ connectors, enabling direct 10G connectivity between switches, servers and storage appliances without separate pluggable modules. It uses optical fiber for data transmission, offering lower power consumption and reduced electromagnetic interference compared with equivalent copper direct attach cables.

Advantages

The CBO SFP-AOC-10G-20M delivers low-latency 10G links with plug-and-play operation through standard SFP+ ports, simplifying installation and reducing inventory of separate transceivers and fiber patch cords. The fixed-length active optical design provides predictable signal performance over the 20 m span while minimizing heat and power draw. Its integrated connectors reduce connector handling and ensure link stability in dense rack environments.

Suitable for

• Data center switch-to-switch or switch-to-server interconnects
• Rack-to-rack 10G links within telecom or enterprise wiring closets
• Server uplinks and storage network connections requiring low-latency 10G
• Environments where reduced power and EMI are preferred over copper DACs

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form-factor connectors at both ends
• Nominal data rate: 10 Gigabit Ethernet
• Cable type: Active optical cable with integrated transceivers
• Length: 20 meters fixed
• Transmission medium: Optical fiber
• Latency: Low-latency optical transmission suitable for 10G applications
• Power consumption: Lower than equivalent copper direct attach cables

How to use

Install the CBO SFP-AOC-10G-20M by inserting each SFP+ connector into compatible SFP+ ports on networking equipment until the retention latch engages. Ensure both endpoints support 10G SFP+ modules and that port settings match the expected auto-negotiation or manual configuration for 10G operation. No separate transceiver modules or fiber patch cables are required. After insertion, verify the link status via device LEDs or management interfaces and confirm throughput and error counters to ensure optimal operation.

Recommendations

Use this active optical cable for intra-rack and adjacent rack connections where a fixed 20 m length provides sufficient reach. Avoid sharp bends and excessive pulling force on the cable; follow equipment vendor guidance for SFP+ port handling and hot-plugging. For mixed-vendor environments, verify compatibility lists or test the link before large deployments to ensure full 10G interoperability.
