Axiom Upgrades

470-ABLZ-AX 10 GbE Active Optical Cable - SFP⁺ to SFP⁺, Dell-Compatible, 3 Meter (9.8 ft)

The Axiom Upgrades 470-ABLZ-AX is a premium 10 Gbps Active Optical Cable engineered for Dell network environments supporting SFP⁺ interfaces. At 3 meters (9.8 feet), this plug-and-play AOC delivers high-speed, low-latency connectivity between switches, routers, servers, and storage appliances. Factory-configured for Dell compatibility and compliant with 10GBASE-AOC standards, it offers seamless interoperability with Dell Force10, PowerEdge, PowerSwitch, and other Dell Networking platforms. Efficient, reliable, and engineered for data center performance, this cable is ideal for high-density rack-to-rack or node interconnects.

Features

Designed for modern enterprise and data center networking, the 470-ABLZ-AX features embedded transceiver chips on both ends, delivering full-duplex 10 Gbps performance across multimode OM3 fiber. This eliminates the need for separate SFP⁺ modules and fiber patch cords, reducing cost, space, and complexity. Optimized for Dell platforms, this AOC is pre-flashed to ensure immediate detection and compatibility out of the box, delivering consistent signal integrity and error-free transmission across certified hosts

Advanced Options

The cable's LSZH-rated multimode fiber jacket is lightweight and highly flexible, facilitating clean routing within racks and cabinets. Operating power is minimal (typically under 1 W), and the cable remains fully functional across a standard temperature range. With its durable construction and hot-pluggable SFP⁺ connectors, it supports seamless deployment and maintenance in live networking environments.

Reliability & Performance

The Axiom 470-ABLZ-AX is optimized for nonstop operation in mission-critical networking deployments. With active optical design and factory-programmed Dell compatibility, it ensures stable high-speed transmission with minuscule error rates and consistent signal quality across OM3 fiber. The lightweight LSZH jacket supports tight bend radii and fire-safe installation, making cable management neat and compliant within rack environments. Operational resilience is also strong: designed for continuous performance in 0 °C to 70 °C environments, this AOC is resilient to thermal stress and port wear. The hot-swappable SFP⁺ connectors allow quick replacement or upgrades with no disruption. Low power consumption and reduced EMI presence compared to copper DACs further improve energy efficiency and signal integrity. Whether used for Dell PowerEdge interconnects, high-density switches, or storage fabrics, this cable delivers reliable, cost-effective 10 Gbps connectivity.
