BlueOptics UACC-AOC-SFP10-50M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable SFP+ 50m Male/Male

The BlueOptics UACC-AOC-SFP10-50M-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable SFP+ 50m Male/Male is a 50-metre active optical cable (AOC) with SFP+ to SFP+ connectors designed for 10G data transmission over multimode fibre. The cable integrates transmitter and receiver modules on each end to handle optical signalling and conforms to MSA SFP+ mechanical and electrical standards. It is intended for direct connection of networking equipment such as switches, routers, storage systems and servers where a pre-terminated optical link with SFP+ interfaces is required.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC supports 10GBASE-SR class data rates across a 50 m multimode link, offering low-latency, electromagnetic-interference-immune transmission typical of fibre optics. The pre-assembled SFP+ male-to-male cable eliminates the need for separate transceivers and patch cords, reducing insertion loss and simplifying rack-to-rack or chassis-to-chassis cabling. Tested for compatibility with hardware platforms that accept MSA-compliant SFP+ AOCs, the cable provides integrated digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) functionality for real-time status of voltage, temperature, transmit power and receive power when supported by the host device.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the BlueOptics AOC by inserting each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ port of your networking devices until the module latches. Ensure devices are powered following manufacturer guidelines and verify link lights and host port status for an active connection. Use management interfaces or supported monitoring tools to read DDM/DOM parameters if the connected hardware exposes these readings. Handle the cable by the connector bodies and avoid tight bends; follow standard fibre handling precautions to prevent damage to the integrated transceiver modules and fibre core.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, confirm firmware and hardware compatibility of host devices with generic SFP+ AOCs and enable DDM/DOM monitoring if available. Maintain a minimum bend radius as specified by the manufacturer and avoid routing the cable near high-heat sources. If troubleshooting is required, compare DDM readings and port statistics on both ends of the link before replacing components.
