SFP-10G-AOC2M Description

The SFP-10G-AOC2M is a Cisco 10GBASE-AOC SFP+ active optical cable for short 10 Gigabit Ethernet links of 2 meters between SFP+ host ports. The cable terminates in SFP+ connectors at both ends, draws a maximum of 1W and operates from 0 to 70°C, and its brown bail latches mark the 2-meter length. In a 40G QSFP+ port on a UCS 6332, 10G SFP+ cables work only through a CVR-QSFP-SFP10G QSA module.

Application Scenarios

Top-Of-Rack Switch To Server

Inside one cabinet, a 2-meter cable links an SFP+ switch port to a server or adjacent switch without separate transceivers or fiber jumpers.

Short Catalyst Uplinks

Catalyst 9500 and C9200L Multigigabit switches with 10G ports use the cable for short uplinks to a neighboring device.

SFP-10G-AOC2M is the 2-meter 10GBASE-AOC cable with brown bail latches, and SFP-10G-AOC1M and SFP-10G-AOC3M are the same 1W SFP+ active optical cable at 1 meter with beige latches and 3 meters with orange latches, so length separates them. A route that stretches past 2 meters needs SFP-10G-AOC3M, and a shorter one fits SFP-10G-AOC1M. Passive twinax copper at the same 2-meter length is SFP-H10GB-CU2M, which draws 0.1W against 1W for the optical cable; choose it when the link is copper rather than optical.

Ordering Checklist

  • Catalyst 1300 hosts: Use Catalyst 1300 and 1300X switches with 10G SFP+ ports, such as C1300-24T-4X, C1300-24XS and C1300X-24T-4X. These are the models whose supported-module list includes SFP-10G-AOC2M; hosts outside that list are not covered.

Questions & Answers

  • How long is SFP-10G-AOC2M in feet?

    SFP-10G-AOC2M measures 2 meters, which is 6.6 ft. Allow for slack at both SFP+ ends and for the bend radius of the optical cable when you plan the rack route, because the length is fixed and the cable cannot be trimmed.
  • What storage temperature does SFP-10G-AOC2M allow?

    SFP-10G-AOC2M can be stored from -40 to 85°C, which is wider than its operating range. Spare cables can wait in an unheated store, but they should warm to the operating range before they are plugged into powered SFP+ ports.
  • What are the SFP+ connector dimensions of SFP-10G-AOC2M?

    Each SFP+ connector on SFP-10G-AOC2M measures 8.5 x 13.4 x 56.5 mm. The size follows the standard SFP+ form, so the connector fits any SFP+ cage and a 1RU port row without extra clearance.
  • How much does each SFP+ connector on SFP-10G-AOC2M weigh?

    Each SFP+ connector on SFP-10G-AOC2M weighs 75 grams or less. Support the cable body in the cable manager so the connector weight does not pull on the cage.
