Overview The Black Box SFP-10G-AOC2M-BB is an active optical cable designed to provide a reliable 10 Gbps connection between SFP+ ports on switches, routers, servers, or storage devices. With a length of 2 meters (6.5 feet), it is well suited for top-of-rack connections, stacking links, or short-distance links within server pods where copper cables might obstruct airflow or add unnecessary weight. This cable integrates optical fiber with built-in transceivers, offering the benefits of fiber optics without the need for separate modules. Key features Supports 10 Gbps data rates compatible with 10G Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and InfiniBand protocols, ensuring versatile high-speed connectivity. Compliant with SFP+ MSA and SFF-8431 standards, allowing seamless installation in Cisco hardware and other MSA-compliant platforms. Thin and lightweight cable profile reduces physical bulk and improves airflow in dense rack environments, helping maintain optimal server temperatures. Optical design eliminates electromagnetic and radio frequency interference, delivering clean and error-free data transmission. Low power consumption of less than 0.6 W per end minimizes impact on overall rack power budgets, which is critical in energy-conscious data centers. Key specs Data rate: 10 Gbps Length: 2 meters (6.5 feet) Standards compliance: SFP+ MSA, SFF-8431 Power consumption: under 0.6 W per end Compatibility: Cisco SFP-10G-AOC5M= family and other MSA-compliant devices Connectivity and compatibility This active optical cable connects directly to any SFP+ port, making it compatible with a wide range of networking equipment including switches, routers, servers, and storage appliances. Its adherence to industry standards ensures it works smoothly in mixed-vendor environments, simplifying network management and deployment. Ideal uses and environments The cable is particularly effective in data centers and server rooms where space and airflow are at a premium. It fits well in top-of-rack setups, server pods, and high-density racks, supporting high-performance computing clusters, NAS or SAN storage connections, and low-latency 10G Ethernet backbones. Its optical design and low power draw make it a strong choice for environments that demand reliable, high-speed links with minimal interference and energy consumption.
