The JBX04546 50-meter Intel Compatible 10GBASE-AOC SFP+ Active Optical Cable represents cutting-edge fiber optic technology designed for modern enterprise networking demands. Built to exacting specifications, this active optical cable bridges the gap between high-speed data transmission and practical installation requirements. **Technical Specifications:** Featuring OM3 50/125 multimode fiber, this dual-strand duplex cable supports 10GB Ethernet transmission over impressive distances. The plenum-rated (OFNP) plastic jacketing makes it suitable for installation in building air handling spaces where standard cables are prohibited—a critical requirement for many commercial installations. **Performance & Compatibility:** Qualified to IEEE 802.3ae standards and SFF-8431/SFF-8472 specifications, the JBX04546 delivers reliable performance across demanding network infrastructures. Its Intel compatibility ensures seamless integration with existing systems, and it serves as a direct replacement for Intel's XAOCBL50M cable. **Safety & Compliance:** Comprehensive safety certifications include Class 1 Laser designation, TUV approval, and UL/FDA compliance (21CFR 1040.10). The cable meets RoHS and EU Directive 2002/95/EC standards, ensuring environmental responsibility and workplace safety. **Installation & Reliability:** With a 90-day limited warranty and proven performance in datacenter environments, this cable offers peace of mind. The 50-meter length eliminates the need for multiple shorter runs while maintaining signal integrity. Operating reliably between 0-70°C (32-158°F), it handles diverse environmental conditions. **Ideal Applications:** Datacenters, enterprise campuses, backbone connectivity, storage area networks (SANs), and high-performance computing facilities benefit from this cable's capabilities. IT professionals trust active optical cables for mission-critical infrastructure where reliability cannot be compromised. **Value Proposition:** With free standard shipping on orders over $99 and availability from multiple distribution centers (Danville, CA and Beaufort, SC), rapid deployment is assured. Custom brand programming is available for organizations requiring specialized configurations.
