AOC active optical cable CBO 10GE-SFPP-AOC-1001 10Gbps, SFP+ to SFP+ duplex, length 100 m

The AOC active optical cable CBO 10GE-SFPP-AOC-1001 is a 10Gbps duplex link that connects SFP+ ports over a 100 m optical cable. Purpose-built for data center and network equipment, this AOC integrates optical transceivers into the cable assembly to provide a direct SFP+ to SFP+ connection without separate modules. The cable delivers low-latency, EMI-immune optical transmission and supports standard 10 Gigabit Ethernet signaling for server-to-switch, switch-to-switch and storage networking applications.

Advantages

This active optical cable provides a plug-and-play solution that eliminates the need for separate transceiver modules and shortens deployment time. Because it uses optical fiber, it is immune to electromagnetic interference and maintains signal integrity across longer distances compared with copper SFP+ cables. The integrated design reduces cabling complexity and weight while enabling consistent 10Gbps throughput suitable for high-density installations.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in racks and rows
• Switch-to-switch uplinks within and between data center racks
• Storage area network links requiring reliable 10GbE connectivity
• Environments where EMI immunity and low latency are required

Key specifications

• Interface: SFP+ to SFP+ duplex
• Data rate: 10 Gbps
• Length: 100 meters
• Transmission medium: active optical cable with integrated transceivers
• Signal characteristics: low latency, optical transmission, EMI immunity

How to use

Connect each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port on network devices. Ensure that both endpoints support 10GbE SFP+ optics and that ports are enabled in the device firmware or operating system. No separate transceivers or fiber patching are required; the cable assembly handles optical conversion internally. Verify link status on both devices and configure network settings such as duplex and MTU as needed for your environment.

Recommendations

Route the cable to avoid tight bends and mechanical strain; maintain the manufacturer’s minimum bend radius and secure the cable to prevent tugging. Use appropriate SFP+ port configuration and matching speed settings on connected devices. For best performance in data center environments, pair the AOC with compliant SFP+ ports and monitor temperature and link status during initial deployment.
