The JBX04497 2-meter HPE-compatible 10GBASE-AOC SFP+ active optical cable represents the ideal solution for organizations seeking reliable, high-speed optical connectivity without the complexity of separate transceivers and passive cables. This integrated active optical cable combines the transmit and receive optics directly into the connector assembly, eliminating compatibility issues and reducing deployment time. Key Features and Specifications: - Length: 2 meters, ideal for short-to-medium distance interconnects - Data Rate: 10GB with full compliance to IEEE 802.3ae standards - Fiber Type: OM2 50/125 multimode duplex configuration - Plenum Rating: OFNP-rated jacketing for safety in plenum-space installations - Form Factor: SFP+ connectors for universal compatibility - Temperature Range: 0 to 70°C (32 to 158°F) for flexible deployment - Safety Certifications: Class 1 Laser, UL/FDA 21CFR 1040.10, TUV - Compliance: RoHS/ELV and EU Directive 2002/95/EC Application Benefits: This cable excels in enterprise data center environments where space constraints and fire codes mandate plenum-rated solutions. The active optics eliminate signal degradation over distance, ensuring consistent 10GB performance. HPE compatibility ensures seamless integration with existing Hewlett Packard Enterprise infrastructure, including ProLiant servers and networking equipment. Manufacturing and Support: Produced to exacting standards in Vietnam and China, this cable undergoes rigorous quality testing to meet enterprise-grade requirements. The 90-day limited warranty provides peace of mind, while free standard shipping on orders over $99 reduces total cost of ownership. Custom brand programming is available for bulk orders and OEM applications, allowing white-label deployment for resellers and system integrators. Why Choose This Cable: The integrated active design eliminates the need for separate optical transceiver modules, reducing deployment complexity and cost. Unlike passive fiber cables, active optical cables include signal conditioning electronics for superior performance and reliability. The OM2 multimode fiber specification provides optimal performance for the 2-meter distance while maintaining cost-effectiveness compared to single-mode alternatives.
