Description

The SFP-10G-AOCxM-BCC is a drop-in compatible replacement for the Cisco SFP-10G-AOC1M and related length variants. These active optical cables are plug-and-play compatible with Cisco switches, routers, and servers equipped with SFP+ ports. - SFF-8431 MSA compliance guarantees interoperability with any standards-compliant SFP+ host port - SFP+ to SFP+ form factor with 850nm VCSEL optics over internal multi-mode fibre - 10.3125 Gbps data rate supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet, Fibre Channel, and InfiniBand applications - Digital diagnostic monitoring (DDM) support for real-time temperature, voltage, bias current, and optical power monitoring - Available in 1M, 2M, 3M, 5M, 7M, and 10M lengths for flexible rack and inter-rack connectivity - 0 to 70 degrees C commercial operating temperature range with hot-swappable SFP+ connectors

Features

• SFF-8431 and SFP+ MSA compliance ensures the cable works in any standards-compliant 10G SFP+ slot without platform lock-in
• 850nm VCSEL transmitters deliver multi-gigabit signalling from 1.25 to 10.3125 Gbps, supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet, 4x and 8x Fibre Channel, and InfiniBand DDR/QDR on the same physical cable
• DDM interface (SFF-8472) exposes temperature, voltage, bias current, transmit power, and receive power in real time via host CLI or SNMP for proactive link health monitoring
• Internal multi-mode fibre construction eliminates exposed LC connectors and the risk of contamination, scratches, or breaks that plague discrete transceiver and patch-cable assemblies
• Hot-swappable SFP+ 20-pin footprint allows live insertion and removal without powering down the host, and the lightweight design reduces port strain and improves airflow in high-density racks
• 30mm minimum bend radius and 0.8W per-connector power budget make these cables suitable for tight intra-rack routing and chassis with limited thermal headroom
• Active signal regeneration overcomes the distance and signal-integrity limits of passive copper DAC, supporting clean 10G links across the full cable length without bit-error-rate degradation

FAQs

Q: Will this work in place of the Cisco SFP-10G-AOC1M?
A: Yes. The SFP-10G-AOCxM-BCC is a plug-and-play replacement for the Cisco SFP-10G-AOC1M and other SFP-10G-AOCxM length variants. It shares the same SFP+ form factor, 10.3125 Gbps data rate, and SFF-8431 MSA compliance, so it will initialise and operate exactly like the Cisco original in any compatible host.

Q: Which Cisco platforms are compatible with this cable?
A: Any Cisco switch, router, or server with 10G SFP+ ports will accept this cable. That includes Catalyst 2960-X/XR, 3750-X, 4500-E, 6500-E with 10G line cards, Nexus 2000, 3000, 5000, 7000, and 9000 series, UCS Fabric Interconnects, and ASR 900 routers. If the port accepts a Cisco SFP-10G-AOC cable, it will accept this one.

Q: What is the actual cable reach and does fibre type matter?
A: The cable length is fixed by the variant you select (1M, 2M, 3M, 5M, 7M, or 10M). The fibre is factory-integrated and optimised for 850nm VCSEL transmission, so you do not specify OM3 or OM4. The active design maintains signal integrity across the stated length without external patch cables or cleaning.

Q: Can I monitor link health and optical power levels on this cable?
A: Yes. Each end of the cable supports DDM via the SFF-8472 interface, exposing temperature, supply voltage, laser bias current, transmit optical power, and receive optical power. You can read these parameters through the host CLI using commands like show interface transceiver or via SNMP for threshold alarming and trending.

Q: How does the power budget and thermal profile compare to passive copper DAC?
A: Each SFP+ connector draws approximately 0.8W, so a complete cable consumes around 1.6W total. Passive copper DAC draws near zero power but suffers from signal loss and crosstalk beyond 3 to 5 metres. The active optical design trades modest power for clean 10G signalling at 10M, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and a lighter, more flexible cable that simplifies dense-rack routing.
