SFP+ Optical Network Transceiver CBO AOC-E10GSFPSR-BO 10 Gbit/s 850 nm AOC

CBO AOC-E10GSFPSR-BO is an SFP+ active optical cable (AOC) transceiver that supports 10 Gbit/s data transfer at an 850 nm wavelength. It is intended for short-reach optical connections between switches, servers and other network devices. The module combines a compact SFP+ form factor with an integrated fiber link to deliver consistent throughput and signal integrity in data center topologies and enterprise networks while reducing cable bulk and electromagnetic interference.

Advantages

The AOC design integrates transmitter and receiver optics in a single SFP+ module with a pre-terminated fiber assembly, eliminating the need for separate transceivers and external patch cables for short-reach links. This results in simplified installation and predictable optical performance with low latency and stable 10 Gbit/s throughput. The low-power optical solution helps reduce heat output compared with some copper alternatives and is inherently immune to electrical noise, improving link reliability in dense rack environments.

Suitable for

• Short-reach uplinks between top-of-rack and aggregation switches
• Server-to-switch interconnects in data centers
• High-speed connections in enterprise network closets and wiring cabinets
• Environments requiring low EMI and compact cabling

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+
• Data rate: 10 Gbit/s
• Operating wavelength: 850 nm
• Connector type: integrated optical cable assembly (no separate LC connector required for user termination)
• Range: short-reach multimode fiber links (typical data-center distances)
• Power consumption: low-power optical module suitable for dense deployments
• Compatibility: designed for use with SFP+ ports on switches and servers supporting active optical cable modules

How to use

Install the AOC module into an available SFP+ port on each device until it latches; no fiber termination or separate transceiver installation is necessary. Connect the integrated optical cable ends to the corresponding SFP+ ports on the paired devices. Ensure both network interfaces are configured for 10 Gbit/s operation and verify link status through the device management interface. Follow standard ESD precautions when handling the module and avoid bending the integrated cable below its minimum bend radius to maintain optical performance.

Recommendations

Choose this active optical cable for short-distance 10 Gbit/s links within racks or between adjacent racks. Confirm compatibility with your switch or server vendor for AOC support, observe recommended cable bend radii, and use network monitoring to verify signal integrity and link stability after deployment.
