SFP+ kabel BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-7M-PS-BO 7m samec/samec

The BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-7M-PS-BO is a 7 m SFP+ active optical cable (AOC) with male SFP+ connectors on both ends, designed for 10GBASE-SR applications. The cable integrates transmitter and receiver modules on each end and uses multimode fiber to transmit optical signals at up to 10 Gbit/s over a 7 meter link. It is intended for use in data center and network equipment that provide SFP+ ports and support MSA-compliant active optical cables. The pre-assembled design eliminates the need for separate patch cords and reduces signal loss and attenuation associated with connectorized fiber assemblies.

Advantages

The BlueOptics 7 m SFP+ AOC provides a plug-and-play SFP+ to SFP+ connection that is electrically, mechanically and functionally compliant with SFP+ AOC MSA specifications. It supports full-duplex simultaneous transmit and receive operation and includes digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) for real-time monitoring of voltage, laser bias current, output power, received power and temperature when supported by the host hardware. The factory-assembled multimode optical link reduces electromagnetic interference susceptibility and simplifies installation compared with separate fiber patching.

Suitable for

• Interconnects between switches, routers and storage systems within data centers.
• Short-reach 10G links in server racks and equipment cabinets.
• Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and other high-speed Ethernet applications up to 10 Gbit/s.

Key specifications

• Connector type: SFP+ (male) to SFP+ (male)
• Length: 7 meters
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbit/s (10GBASE-SR)
• Cable type: active optical cable with multimode fiber
• Monitoring: Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) compliant with SFF-8472 (host support required)
• Compliance: MSA SFP+ AOC mechanical and electrical compatibility
• Applications: Ethernet, FCoE, SDH/SONET compatible transmission protocols

How to use

Install the BlueOptics SFP-AOC-10G-7M-PS-BO by inserting each SFP+ connector into the SFP+ cages of the devices to be connected until the latch engages. Confirm link status on both devices and verify DDM/DOM readings through the host management interface if monitoring is required and supported. No additional configuration is necessary for physical connectivity; ensure the connected equipment is configured for the intended 10 Gbit/s link and compatible protocols.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, avoid tight bends and mechanical strain on the cable and maintain the recommended bend radius for multimode fiber. Verify that the target devices support third-party AOC modules and DDM/DOM functions if you plan to use diagnostic monitoring. Use in clean rack environments and avoid exposure to strong electromagnetic fields even though optical links are inherently immune to EMI.
