Addon SFP-10G-AOC20M-AO
Cisco® SFP-10G-AOC20M Compatible TAA Compliant 10GBase-AOC SFP+ Active Optical Cable (850nm, MMF, 20m)
The AddonSFP-10G-AOC20M-AO is a Cisco® compatible 10GBase Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed to deliver high-performance, low-latency data transmission for enterprise and data center networks. With a reach of 20 meters (65.6 feet), this plug-and-play SFP+ to SFP+ cable operates over multi-mode fiber (MMF) at an 850nm wavelength, providing robust 10Gbps connectivity for switch-to-switch, server-to-switch, and storage interconnects.Built to MSA standards and fully TAA compliant, the AddonSFP-10G-AOC20M-AO is engineered for full interoperability with Cisco® systems and all other MSA-compliant hardware. Ideal for organizations seeking a cost-effective and power-efficient alternative to copper DACs, this AOC offers superior signal integrity with reduced EMI. Each unit is uniquely serialized and factory-tested to ensure optimal performance and seamless integration. Whether for core, distribution, or access layer deployments, this cable delivers the speed and reliability required in today’s high-density, high-bandwidth environments.
Features
The AddonSFP-10G-AOC20M-AO merges active optical transceivers with fiber cabling into a compact, flexible solution for high-speed interconnects. Supporting the 10GBase standard, this cable is purpose-built for data center applications such as switch uplinks, virtualized workloads, and cloud-based infrastructure. It delivers consistent 10Gbps throughput across its 20-meter range without the signal degradation or EMI challenges of traditional copper-based solutions.As a Cisco® compatible cable, it integrates directly with Cisco Nexus®, Catalyst®, and UCS platforms, as well as other MSA-compliant networking gear. The active design ensures signal amplification and improved data integrity over longer distances, making it perfect for inter-rack deployments. Its multi-mode fiber construction and 850nm wavelength ensure compatibility with industry-standard SFP+ ports, while its hot-swappable feature enables installation or upgrades without downtime.
Advanced Options
TAA compliance further makes this cable suitable for government and federal installations. Addonguarantees factory-tested quality, with each cable individually serialized for traceability and compliance. Whether you're modernizing a data center or optimizing server-to-switch connections, the SFP-10G-AOC20M-AO offers a scalable, plug-and-play solution with performance you can count on.The AddonSFP-10G-AOC20M-AO is built for high-reliability performance in mission-critical network environments. Its active optical design maintains signal strength across 20 meters, making it a better choice than passive DACs for medium-range connectivity. With consistent 10Gbps throughput, low power usage, and minimal electromagnetic interference, it enhances both network efficiency and stability in high-density deployments.
