The Black Box SFP-10G-AOC2M-BB is an active optical cable that creates a dependable 10 Gbps link between any SFP+ port on your switches, routers, servers, or storage appliances. At two meters in length, it is ideal for top-of-rack connections, stacking links, or short-distance links within a server pod where copper cables would block airflow or add weight.

This cable combines an optical fiber core with integrated transceivers, so you get the reach and electromagnetic immunity of fiber without the expense or complexity of separate SFP+ modules. It meets the SFP+ MSA and SFF-8431 specifications, which means it installs instantly in Cisco hardware that accepts the Cisco SFP-10G-AOC5M= family, as well as in any other MSA-compliant platform. Network teams that manage mixed-vendor environments can deploy it with confidence.

The cable’s slim profile eases bends in crowded racks and opens more room for air to circulate, helping servers stay cooler and reducing the load on facility cooling systems. Each end draws less than 0.6 W, so the link contributes very little to a rack’s overall power budget—an advantage in dense data center, campus, or lab installations where every watt counts.

Use it to stitch together high-performance computing clusters, connect NAS or SAN shelves over Fibre Channel, or build low-latency 10G Ethernet backbones for virtualized environments. Wherever you need a short, clean, and energy-efficient optical jump, this Black Box cable delivers the speed and reliability that business-critical traffic demands.

Highlights:
  • 10 Gbps data rate supports 10G Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and InfiniBand
  • 2 m (6.5 ft) length suits top-of-rack or equipment-to-equipment links
  • MSA and SFF-8431 compliant; compatible with Cisco SFP-10G-AOC5M= and other SFP+ devices
  • Thin cable profile reduces weight and improves airflow in high-density racks
  • Optical design eliminates EMI and RFI concerns for clean, error-free performance
  • Low power consumption under 0.6 W per end lowers operating costs
