SFP AOC Cable BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-2M-AT-BO 2m SFP+ Male/Male

The BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-2M-AT-BO is a 2 metre SFP+ Active Optical Cable (AOC) with SFP+ male connectors on both ends designed for 10G data transmission over multi-mode fiber. Engineered to the SFP+ AOC MSA, this pre-assembled cable integrates transmitter and receiver modules to send and receive optical signals simultaneously, providing a plug-and-play fiber link for switches, routers, storage systems and other SFP+ enabled devices.

Advantages

This SFP+ AOC delivers 10GBASE-SR class performance over a short 2 m span while eliminating the need for separate transceivers and patch cords. Built to MSA standards, it offers interoperable mechanical and electrical fit with compatible SFP+ ports and includes Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support for real-time parameters such as supply voltage, laser bias current, output/input optical power and device temperature. The assembled optical connection reduces susceptibility to electromagnetic interference and simplifies installation and maintenance in dense network environments.

Suitable for

• Short-range 10 GbE links between switches in data center racks
• Interconnects for routers, storage arrays and network appliances with SFP+ ports
• High-density patching in top-of-rack and aggregation layers
• Environments requiring EMI immunity and low-latency optical links

Key specifications

• Form factor: SFP+ to SFP+ active optical cable (AOC)
• Length: 2 metres
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s
• Optical medium: multi-mode fiber with integrated Tx/Rx modules
• Compliance: SFP+ AOC MSA mechanical and electrical compatibility
• Monitoring: Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support
• Connector type: SFP+ male on both ends

How to use

Insert each SFP+ connector into the corresponding SFP+ ports on the devices to be connected, ensuring the module latches are engaged. Verify that connected hardware supports SFP+ AOC modules and, if required, enable or check DDM/DOM readings through the device management interface. No patching or fiber termination is required; the pre-assembled cable provides an immediate optical connection once both ends are seated and link negotiation completes.

Recommendations

Use this 2 m AOC for short-distance intra-rack or adjacent-rack links where a fixed, low-latency 10G optical connection is needed. Ensure both devices support SFP+ AOC modules and check firmware compatibility if link negotiations fail. Avoid sharp bends and tensile stress on the cable; follow standard optical handling practices to preserve lifetime and signal quality.
