Add-On SFP-10G-AOC5M-AO 10Gbps Direct Attach Cable
Overview
The Add-On SFP-10G-AOC5M-AO is a TAA-compliant, 5-meter direct attach copper cable assembly. It provides a cost-effective, low-power solution for short-reach 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections within racks or between adjacent racks. This cable is designed to emulate Cisco's SFP-10G-AOC5M, offering a direct replacement for applications requiring specific vendor compatibility without the premium cost.
Compatibility
This cable is engineered to be compatible with network switches, servers, and storage devices that utilize SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) ports and support 10GBASE-AOC (Active Optical Cable) standards. It is specifically designed for compatibility with Cisco equipment that uses the SFP-10G-AOC5M part number, ensuring seamless integration into existing Cisco-centric environments. It functions in any SFP+ slot requiring a 10Gbps connection.
Installation Notes
The SFP+ transceivers on each end of the cable are hot-swappable, meaning you can connect or disconnect the cable while the host system is powered on without causing disruption. Ensure the SFP+ ports on your equipment are clean before insertion. The cable requires no configuration; it is a plug-and-play component. The 5-meter length is ideal for inter-rack connectivity in standard data center layouts.
