SFP-10G-AOC1M Description
SFP-10G-AOC1M is a Cisco 10GBASE-AOC SFP+ active optical cable assembly for short supported 10 Gigabit Ethernet links between SFP+ ports. It provides a fixed 1-meter SFP+ to SFP+ connection, uses an active optical cable design rather than passive twinax copper, and is identified by Cisco with a beige bail latch, 1W maximum power consumption, and a commercial 0 to 70 degrees C operating temperature class for host platforms validated through Cisco compatibility documentation.

Application Scenarios
Use SFP-10G-AOC1M when the required Cisco SFP+ link is only 1 meter after cable management. The fixed length helps keep a dense 10G panel cleaner than ordering a longer AOC and coiling slack.
Cisco lists SFP-10G-AOC1M as a 10 Gigabit Ethernet active optical cable assembly in the Catalyst 1300 and 1300X accessory table. Treat that as a platform-specific support reference and still match the exact switch model and port type.
The Cisco UCS 6300 Series Fabric Interconnect guide lists SFP-10G-AOC1M in its supported SFP+ cable table. For UCS orders, also account for QSA adapter requirements when a 10G SFP+ cable is used in a 40G QSFP+ port.

- In a SFP-10G-AOC1M vs SFP-10G-AOC2M comparison, the confirmed order difference is fixed cable length: 1 meter for SFP-10G-AOC1M and 2 meters for SFP-10G-AOC2M.
- The SFP-10G-AOC1M difference from SFP-H10GB-CU1M is cable medium at the same 1-meter length, with Cisco listing SFP-10G-AOC1M as active optical and SFP-H10GB-CU1M as passive twinax copper.
- For which model to choose, start with the required 10G SFP+ cable medium, then confirm whether the installed path needs the 1-meter or 2-meter Cisco AOC.
Selection Guide
1. Match the short physical route
Use SFP-10G-AOC1M for a Cisco 10G SFP+ bill of materials where the dressed path is 1 meter and the design calls for active optical cabling.
2. Step up only when the path needs 2 meters
Move to SFP-10G-AOC2M when the same 10GBASE-AOC cable family is required but the 1-meter cable cannot reach after rack routing and service slack.
3. Keep passive copper on its own line item
SFP-H10GB-CU1M matches the 1-meter length but not the AOC media type, so it belongs only in designs that explicitly call for a Cisco passive twinax copper cable.
4. Confirm the host before ordering
Check the Cisco compatibility matrix or the target platform documentation for the exact switch, fabric interconnect, port type, and software support before placing SFP-10G-AOC1M on a quote.
Ordering Checklist
|
Check Item |
What to Confirm |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Installed route |
1-meter fixed cable path after cable managers |
Prevents over-ordering longer AOC lengths for a same-rack link |
|
Cable medium |
10GBASE-AOC active optical cable assembly |
Avoids substitution with SFP-H10GB-CU1M passive twinax copper |
|
Host support |
Cisco platform and port approval in official compatibility documentation |
Confirms the target SFP+ port supports the exact cable SKU |
|
Power and environment |
1W maximum power and commercial 0 to 70 degrees C class |
Keeps the cable within the Cisco power and temperature specification |
