BlueOptics S+AO0010-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 10 m SFP+ Male Male

The BlueOptics S+AO0010-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 10 m SFP+ Male Male is a 10 metre active optical cable (AOC) with SFP+ connectors at both ends designed for high-speed short-range links. It supports 10GBASE-SR operation over multimode fiber and provides a pre-assembled optical connection that eliminates the need for separate transceivers, patch cords and manual fiber polishing. The cable implements SFP+ electrical and mechanical interfaces according to MSA guidelines and integrates a transmitter and receiver on each end to handle optical signalling for Ethernet, Fibre Channel over Ethernet and similar protocols at up to 10 Gbit/s over 10 m.

Advantages

This AOC is designed for stable 10 Gbit/s short-range connections with immunity to electromagnetic interference and reduced latency compared with copper alternatives. The pre-terminated SFP+ to SFP+ assembly simplifies installation and reduces the number of field operations such as connector cleaning and polishing. Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support enables remote monitoring of supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit power, receive power and temperature where the host hardware implements the DDM interface. Manufacturing to MSA standards ensures interoperability with equipment that supports SFP+ AOCs.

How to use

Install the BlueOptics S+AO0010-BO by inserting each SFP+ module into the corresponding SFP+ port of the networking devices until the latch clicks. Ensure both devices support SFP+ AOC modules and, if you intend to use DDM/DOM monitoring, confirm the host systems expose the diagnostic interface. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and mechanical stress; follow vendor bend-radius recommendations for multimode AOCs. No field termination or additional transceivers are required.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, verify compatibility with the network hardware vendor’s supported transceiver list and maintain a bend radius above the manufacturer’s minimum. Use the DDM/DOM data for proactive monitoring where available, and avoid exposing the cable to excessive tensile load, liquids or temperatures outside the equipment specifications.
