BlueOptics 10GB-F50-SFPP-BO InfiniBand fibre optic cable 50 m SFP+ SFP+ AOC Orange

The BlueOptics 10GB-F50-SFPP-BO is a 50 m active optical cable (AOC) with SFP+ connectors at both ends, designed for 10GBASE-SR applications over multimode fiber. It combines transmitter and receiver modules in pre-terminated SFP+ housings to provide a plug-and-play optical link suitable for high-density networking environments. The cable supports standard SFP+ electrical and mechanical interfaces according to MSA specifications and is intended for use where reliable 10 Gbps connections with low latency and immunity to electromagnetic interference are required.

Advantages

This BlueOptics AOC offers a factory-assembled optical connection that eliminates the need for field termination, patch cords and additional transceivers. By using integrated optical transceivers on each end it reduces signal attenuation and simplifies deployment in racks and data center cabling. The built-in design supports digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM/DOM) when the host hardware provides that capability, and the product is manufactured to comply with common industrial standards for quality and safety.

Suitable for

• Inter-switch and switch-to-server connections in data centers
• High-speed uplinks in enterprise network fabrics
• Storage area network (SAN) links using Fibre Channel over Ethernet
• Telecommunications and high-performance computing clusters

Key specifications

• Length: 50 m
• Interface: SFP+ to SFP+
• Data rate: up to 10 Gbps (10GBASE-SR)
• Medium: multimode fiber with integrated active optical transceivers
• Connector color/appearance: orange jacket typical for multimode AOC
• MSA compliant SFP+ electrical and mechanical interface
• Digital Diagnostics Monitoring (DDM/DOM) support when available on host device

How to use

Install the BlueOptics 10GB-F50-SFPP-BO by inserting each SFP+ module into compatible SFP+ ports on network devices until the latch clicks. Ensure connected devices support 10GBASE-SR and the SFP+ AOC form factor. No additional transceivers or fiber patching is required; route the pre-assembled cable to avoid sharp bends and excessive tension. If the host platform supports DDM/DOM, check the diagnostic parameters through the device management interface to verify optical power and temperature readings.

Usage recommendations

Use cable management to maintain minimum bend radius and avoid mechanical stress. Verify firmware and driver compatibility on switches and servers if link negotiation issues occur. For critical links, test a sample AOC in the intended hardware to confirm interoperability and DDM visibility before large-scale rollout.
