CBO AOC SFP+ BlueOptics BO353503J30M 10G aktívny optický kábel, SFP+ na SFP+, 30 m

The CBO AOC SFP+ BlueOptics BO353503J30M 10G active optical cable provides a 10 Gbps duplex SFP+ connection over a 30-meter fiber link. This hot-pluggable SFP+ to SFP+ cable is intended for direct interconnects between network switches, servers and storage devices. The optical medium reduces electromagnetic interference and cable weight compared with equivalent copper assemblies while maintaining low latency and native 10 Gigabit throughput suitable for data center and campus environments.

Advantages

The active optical cable delivers full 10 Gbps performance across a 30 m distance with reduced power consumption and improved signal integrity compared with long copper alternatives. Its SFP+ connector form factor allows straightforward installation into standard SFP+ ports without additional transceivers. The duplex fiber construction provides immunity to electromagnetic interference and minimizes crosstalk, and the lighter cable assembly simplifies cable routing in dense racks and conduit runs.

Suitable for

• Direct SFP+ to SFP+ links between switches and aggregation devices
• Server-to-switch and storage-to-switch connections in data centers
• High-speed uplinks on campus networks and wiring closets
• Short-to-medium reach optical interconnects where reduced EMI and weight are required

Key specifications

• Data rate: 10 Gbps (native)
• Connector type: SFP+ to SFP+
• Length: 30 meters (duplex optical cable)
• Cable type: Active optical cable (AOC)
• Signal characteristics: Low latency, electromagnetic immunity
• Form factor: Hot-pluggable SFP+ module ends

How to use

Install the cable by inserting each SFP+ end into compatible SFP+ ports on the devices to be linked. Ensure both ends seat fully until the connector latches engage. The cable is hot-pluggable and can be connected or disconnected while equipment is powered, but follow device vendor guidance for link changes to avoid transient network effects. Confirm link negotiation and 10 Gbps operation through the switch or server management interface and replace faulty ports or modules as needed.

Recommendations

Use the active optical cable in managed environments where SFP+ ports are supported and follow site cable management best practices. Avoid tight bends and protect the duplex assembly from crushing; maintain minimum bend radius recommended for optical cables. For predictable performance, pair the cable with equipment that supports 10G SFP+ optics and verify firmware compatibility when using third-party components.
