The JBX04535 4-meter 10GBASE-AOC SFP+ active optical cable represents a premium connectivity solution for enterprise-grade network infrastructure. This active optical cable leverages advanced fiber optic technology to deliver industry-leading 10Gigabit Ethernet performance, specifically engineered for Palo Alto Networks security platforms and compatible network equipment. **Key Technical Features:** This cable utilizes OM3 50/125 multimode fiber in a duplex (two-strand) configuration, optimized for 10GBASE-AOC transmission standards. The 4-meter length accommodates typical data center rack configurations and equipment spacing while maintaining optimal signal quality. The plenum-rated OFNP jacketing ensures compliance with building safety codes and allows installation in air-handling plenums without additional conduit—a critical advantage for facility planning and cost reduction. **Performance & Reliability:** Qualified to IEEE 802.3ae specifications, this cable delivers consistent 10Gbps throughput with minimal latency. Active optical technology eliminates electromagnetic interference (EMI) concerns common with copper cables, making it ideal for installations near power distribution equipment. The integrated electronics handle signal conversion efficiently, requiring no external power amplification. Operating temperature range of 0-70°C accommodates standard data center environments while maintaining performance integrity. **Safety & Compliance:** The cable meets stringent international safety standards including UL, FDA 21CFR 1040.10, and TUV certifications. Class 1 Laser certification confirms safe operation for personnel. Full RoHS/ELV and EU directive 2002/95/EC compliance ensures environmental responsibility and global market acceptance. **Applications & Use Cases:** Ideal for connecting Palo Alto Networks firewalls, switches, and security appliances in enterprise data centers, co-location facilities, and campus networks. The 4-meter length suits standard rack spacing in dense equipment environments. Superior to copper alternatives for noise-sensitive installations and long-distance requirements within standard plenum systems. **Shipping & Support:** This product ships from multiple US locations (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC) with free standard shipping on orders exceeding $99. A 90-day limited warranty provides confidence in reliability. Custom brand programming is available for enterprise deployments. The cable directly replaces OEM part number PAN-SFP-AOC-4M, ensuring guaranteed compatibility.
