The JBX04454 1m 10GBASE-AOC SFP+ Active Optical Cable represents a cutting-edge networking solution specifically designed for Extreme Networks environments requiring high-speed, reliable fiber optic connectivity. This active optical cable (AOC) combines the benefits of optical fiber transmission with the convenience of integrated SFP+ connectors, eliminating the need for separate transceivers and reducing overall system cost and complexity. Key Technical Features: This multimode fiber optic cable operates at 10GB data rates, making it suitable for modern high-bandwidth applications including data center interconnects, server-to-switch connections, and storage area network (SAN) deployments. The OM3 50/125 multimode fiber core ensures optimal signal transmission over the 1-meter distance while maintaining performance standards defined by IEEE 802.3ae specifications. The duplex configuration with two fiber strands enables full-duplex communication, essential for contemporary networking requirements. Compliance & Safety: The plenum-rated (OFNP) jacketing meets stringent fire safety codes required for installation in building plenums—the spaces above suspended ceilings used for air circulation. Full RoHS and ELV compliance ensures environmental responsibility and adherence to international directives. Class 1 laser certification, UL/FDA approval, and TUV testing provide comprehensive safety assurance for end users and installers. Compatibility & Replacement: Designed as a direct replacement for Extreme Networks OEM part numbers 10G-AOC-SFP1M, 10G-SFP-AOC-0101, and 10GB-F01-SFPP, this cable integrates seamlessly into existing infrastructure. The SFP+ form factor ensures universal compatibility with equipment featuring standard SFP+ ports. Performance Benefits: Active optical cables eliminate signal degradation issues common with extended copper connections. Operating across temperatures from 0°C to 70°C (32°F to 158°F), this cable performs reliably in diverse environments. The 1-meter length provides optimal flexibility for dense equipment racks while minimizing signal attenuation. Value & Service: Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and available for immediate shipment from US locations (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC), this solution offers peace of mind and rapid deployment. Custom brand programming capabilities allow for organization-specific identification. Free standard shipping applies to orders exceeding $99, making this an economical choice for enterprise networking upgrades.
