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

CBO SFP-AOC-10G-20M is an SFP+ active optical cable offering a fixed 20‑metre link for 10Gbps connections. The cable integrates transceiver electronics and fiber in a single assembly that plugs directly into SFP+ ports, eliminating the need for separate transceivers and patch cords. It is intended for low-latency, high-bandwidth interconnects between switches, servers and storage equipment in data centres, server racks and telecom installations where a reliable short-run optical link is required.

Advantages

The integrated design reduces component count and simplifies installation while preserving full 10Gbps performance and low latency. A fixed-length optical assembly avoids connector loss and patch-cord management, improving signal integrity and airflow in rack environments. The active optics provide robust link training and power management, ensuring consistent operation across compatible SFP+ ports. The 20 m reach supports inter-rack and longer intra-room connections without additional patching.

Suitable for

• 10Gbps interconnects between network switches in adjacent racks or rooms
• Server-to-switch connections in data centre topologies
• Storage array connectivity where short aggregated links are required
• Telecom and enterprise equipment linking that requires low-latency optical runs

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ form factor with integrated active optical cable
• Data rate: 10 Gbps (full duplex)
• Length: 20 metres fixed
• Transmission medium: multimode or single-mode optical strand with active electronics (as implemented in the assembly)
• Latency: low-latency design suitable for switches, servers and storage links
• Power: powered from SFP+ port with on-board power management
• Operating environment: designed for data centre and telecom rack environments

How to use

Install the CBO SFP-AOC-10G-20M by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the two devices to be linked. Ensure both devices support SFP+ active optical assemblies and that ports are configured for 10Gbps operation. No separate transceivers or fibre patch cords are required; the cable provides a single, integrated optical path. After insertion, allow a short time for link training and port negotiation; monitor port status indicators to confirm the link is up.

Recommendations

Confirm firmware and vendor compatibility with SFP+ AOC assemblies in your switches and servers before deployment. Route the cable to avoid tight bends and excessive stress; maintain bend radii recommended for optical assemblies. Use the 20 m length for inter-rack or intra-room connections where a direct optical link reduces patching and improves airflow.
