The JBX04549 5-meter 10GBASE-AOC SFP+ active optical cable represents a sophisticated solution for modern data center and enterprise network infrastructures requiring high-speed, reliable connectivity. This Arista-compatible cable is engineered to deliver consistent 10Gbps performance across its full 5-meter length, utilizing advanced active optical technology that eliminates signal degradation common in traditional copper alternatives. Key Features & Specifications: This cable features OM2 plenum-rated (OFNP) multimode fiber construction, which not only delivers superior performance but also ensures compliance with stringent fire safety codes required in commercial and institutional buildings. The duplex fiber configuration provides simultaneous bidirectional transmission, essential for modern networking protocols. The cable's robust plastic jacketing protects the internal fiber strands while maintaining flexibility for installation in tight spaces and conduit systems. Technical Excellence: Qualified to IEEE 802.3ae standards and SFF-8431/SFF-8472 specifications, this AOC cable undergoes rigorous testing to ensure reliability. Operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C accommodates diverse deployment environments from cooled data centers to equipment rooms. Class 1 Laser certification and TUV/UL/FDA approvals (21 CFR 1040.10) confirm compliance with international safety and performance standards. Applications & Benefits: Perfect for enterprise data centers, high-frequency trading environments, and any installation requiring low-latency 10GB network connectivity. Active optical cables eliminate electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, providing superior signal integrity compared to copper solutions. The plenum rating expands installation flexibility to air handling spaces and ceiling plenums without requiring conduit protection. Reliability & Support: Backed by a 90-day limited warranty and manufactured to exacting standards, this cable is a cost-effective replacement for OEM part AOC-S-S-10G-5M. Custom brand programming is available for organizations requiring white-label solutions. RoHS and ELV compliance ensures environmentally responsible manufacturing.
