Product identity

The Cisco SFP-10G-AOC3M= is a 10GBASE active optical cable with SFP+ connectors on both ends. It is built for network devices that need a 10 Gbit/s link over a fixed 3 metre reach.

Build and connectors

The orange fiber-optic cable uses copper conductors inside an active assembly rated to GR-20-COR and RoHS. Each end terminates in an SFP+ module so the link installs like a transceiver pair without separate patch cords.

Compatibility check

Verify that both ports accept SFP+ modules and support 10GBASE active optical cables at this length. The fixed 3 metre cable cannot be shortened or extended, so rack spacing must match the 9.84 ft reach exactly.

Questions about this item

What does the 10GBASE-AOC SFP+ interface cap the link at in practice?

The cable presents a 10 Gbit/s SFP+ interface on each end, so the link runs at 10 Gbit/s when both ports are 10G.

What physical space and port type does the 3 m orange cable need to fit?

Each end terminates in a standard SFP+ plug, so you need two adjacent SFP+ cages with at least 9.84 ft of routing slack.

How is the SFP-10G-AOC3M= installed and what step do people miss?

Insert both SFP+ connectors until they click, then remove the dust caps only after the modules are seated — many forget to uncap before latching.
