SFP+ AOC CBO SFP-AOC-10G-50M-QN-BO 10G aktívny optický kábel, 50 m

BlueOptics SFP+ AOC CBO SFP-AOC-10G-50M-QN-BO 10G Active Optical Cable, 50 m is a direct-attach optical link in SFP+ form factor designed for 10 gigabit connectivity between servers, switches and storage systems. The cable integrates optical transceivers and a fixed duplex fibre assembly to deliver low-latency 10Gb/s performance over a 50-metre reach, making it suitable for short-range backbone links inside data centres and high-density networking racks.

Advantages

This active optical cable offers plug-and-play SFP+ compatibility with reduced power consumption compared with some active electrical alternatives and improved electromagnetic immunity due to its optical transmission. Its 50 m reach extends the practical direct-attach distance beyond typical copper cables, while maintaining low latency and consistent throughput for 10G applications. The integrated transceivers simplify deployment and reduce the need for separate modules and patch cords.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit links between switches in data centre top-of-rack and end-of-row deployments
• Server-to-switch connectivity in high-density compute environments
• Storage area network (SAN) interconnects and short backbone runs
• Inter-rack connections where 50 m optical reach is required

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ compliant plug-and-play connectors
• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s full duplex
• Reach: 50 metres over multimode optical assembly
• Cable type: Active Optical Cable with integrated transceivers
• Latency: low-latency optical transmission suitable for high-performance networking
• Power: low power consumption compared with equivalent active copper solutions

How to use

Install the AOC by inserting the SFP+ connectors into compatible SFP+ ports on both devices until the latch engages. Verify link status through the host devices’ network interfaces; the integrated transceivers should be recognised automatically by most SFP+ ports. Route the flexible optical cable between racks or within cable trays, avoiding tight bends and sharp kinks to preserve optical performance. No separate module installation or patch cords are required.

Recommendations

Ensure compatibility with the vendor and firmware of the equipment in use and confirm that the SFP+ ports support AOC modules. Maintain minimum bend radius as specified by the manufacturer, protect connector endfaces from dust and contamination, and power down interfaces briefly if you need to mate or unmate the connectors under load.
