Active Optical Cable BlueOptics SFP-10G-AOC-15M 10GBASE-SR 15 m SFP+

Active Optical Cable BlueOptics SFP-10G-AOC-15M 10GBASE-SR 15 m SFP+ is a pre-terminated fiber direct-attach solution that delivers 10 Gbit/s connectivity over a 15-metre link. The cable integrates SFP+ connectors with an optical fiber cable assembly, allowing direct connection between SFP+ ports without separate transceiver modules. It is designed for short-reach, high-speed links in data center and enterprise network environments where simplified cabling and low latency are required.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC provides native 10GBASE-SR performance with lower power consumption compared with separate optical transceivers and patch cords. The pre-terminated design eliminates the need for individual fiber termination and simplifies installation and inventory management. The integrated SFP+ connectors reduce connector loss and provide a consistent optical interface between compatible SFP+ ports. The 15 m length offers flexibility to connect adjacent racks or equipment within the same room without additional patch panels.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-10G-AOC-15M by inserting each integrated SFP+ connector into the SFP+ port on the corresponding network devices until the connector latches. No additional transceivers or fiber patching is required. Verify link status and negotiate 10GBASE-SR operation via device interfaces and network management tools. For best results, ensure SFP+ ports are compatible with active optical cables and that device firmware supports third-party SFP+ modules if applicable.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius. Use in controlled indoor environments and avoid exposure to moisture or direct sunlight. Check device compatibility lists before deployment and confirm link parameters after installation to ensure stable 10 Gbit/s operation.
