Product Features
Technical Overview
This Active Optical Cable operates at a data transfer rate of 10 Gbit/s, supporting 10GBase-AOC standards for efficient network throughput. The multi-mode fiber optic core enables high-speed signal transmission with minimal signal degradation over its 5-meter length, reducing the need for signal regeneration in dense rack setups.
The cable features SFP+ network connectors on both ends, each providing a single port interface that is hot-swappable and compliant with SFP+ MSA specifications. This design ensures compatibility with a wide range of network devices, including switches, routers, and network interface cards that support SFP+ modules. The AOC technology integrates electrical-to-optical conversion within the cable assembly, eliminating external power requirements and simplifying cable management.
Key Product Advantages
The AddOn ADD-SINSNE-AOC5M cable offers several advantages for network administrators and IT professionals seeking reliable, high-speed connectivity solutions.
Simplified Deployment
With integrated AOC technology, this cable reduces complexity by combining optical transceivers and fiber into a single assembly. This eliminates the need for separate SFP+ modules, lowering total cost of ownership and minimizing points of failure in the network path.
- No external power required
- Hot-swappable SFP+ connectors
- Plug-and-play installation
Enhanced Compatibility
Designed for compatibility with Intel E10GSFPSR and Netgear AXM761 SFP+ ports, this cable ensures reliable performance across diverse network equipment. The SFP+ interface is widely adopted in enterprise networking, providing flexibility for future upgrades and mixed-vendor environments.
- Intel E10GSFPSR compatible
- Netgear AXM761 compatible
- Broad network device support
Deployment / Use Cases
This Active Optical Cable is optimized for scenarios requiring high-bandwidth, low-latency connections over short distances within data centers and enterprise networks.
In data center environments, it is ideal for connecting top-of-rack switches to servers or storage arrays in the same rack or adjacent racks, where 5-meter reach is sufficient. The cable's lightweight design and flexibility facilitate neat cable management in high-density racks, reducing clutter and improving airflow.
For enterprise networking, it supports backbone connections between distribution switches in wiring closets, or links between network appliances and core switches. The TAA compliance makes it suitable for government contracts and educational institutions requiring certified networking components. The lifetime warranty provides long-term reliability for critical infrastructure deployments.
Physical Profile
The cable measures 5 meters (16.4 feet) in length, providing adequate reach for most rack-to-rack or intra-rack connections without excess slack. Weighing approximately 11.20 ounces (317.51 grams), it is lightweight enough for easy handling and installation while maintaining durability. The fiber optic construction offers flexibility for routing around corners and through cable management systems, and the robust jacket protects the internal fibers from physical damage in high-traffic areas.
