SFP+ aktívny optický kábel CBO SFP-AOC-10G-3M 10G, 3 m

The BlueOptics SFP+ Active Optical Cable CBO SFP-AOC-10G-3M is a factory-terminated 10 Gbps optical direct-attach cable designed for SFP+ ports. With a 3 m optical link it connects servers, switches and storage equipment to deliver low-latency, high-bandwidth performance while reducing electromagnetic interference compared with copper DACs. The cable supports short-reach data center and rack-to-rack links where stable 10G connectivity and compact cabling are required.

Advantages

This active optical cable provides a reliable 10 Gbps physical connection with optical signal integrity over 3 meters, offering improved thermal and electromagnetic performance versus copper alternatives. The factory-terminated design ensures plug-and-play deployment in SFP+ ports without field polishing or termination. Its lightweight, flexible construction simplifies cable management in dense rack environments and helps maintain airflow and cooling efficiency.

Suitable for

• Short-reach data center interconnects between top-of-rack and aggregation switches
• Rack-to-rack connections for servers and storage systems
• High-throughput links for virtualized environments and SAN uplinks
• Environments requiring reduced electromagnetic interference and lower heat dissipation

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ compatible transceivers on both ends
• Data rate: 10 Gbps (aggregate link speed)
• Length: 3 meters optical cable
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Latency: Low-latency optical transmission suitable for server-switch links
• Construction: Factory-terminated duplex fiber assembly with SFP+ connectors
• EMI performance: Immune to electromagnetic interference compared with copper

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on the devices to be connected, ensuring the connectors are fully seated and any plastic dust caps are removed before insertion. After physical installation, verify link LEDs or host software to confirm the 10 Gbps link is active. No additional termination or optical alignment is required due to factory termination. For best results, route the cable following standard data center cable management practices and avoid tight bends beyond the manufacturer’s bend radius recommendations.

Recommendations

Use this active optical cable for short interconnects up to 3 m in length inside racks or between adjacent racks. Verify SFP+ port compatibility with the connected equipment and ensure firmware or vendor settings do not block third-party transceivers. Maintain proper airflow and avoid excessive bending or tensile stress on the cable to preserve optical performance and service life.
