When it comes to connecting networking equipment in high-density, high-bandwidth applications, whether short distances or long, AOCs that operate over optical fiber are the most well-rounded solution available.
Significantly lower in cost than transceiver solutions, they are perfect for applications that do not require extremely long-distance connections or a modular design. And while higher in cost than copper Direct Attach Cables (DACs), their fiber optic construction allows for a greater transmission distance, is superior in EMI/RFI performance, is thinner, more flexible, and takes up less space.
When it comes to high-speed networking interconnects, you can’t match the combination of performance and affordability of Active Optical Cables.
Lightweight (10 meters of cable weighs less than 100 grams)
Power Efficient Design
Low power consumption (0.6W to 2.5W)
Thin, flexible profile frees up space for air flow
Power savings results in cost savings
EMI/RFI Immunity and Fire-Safe Jacketing
Optical cabling provides high EMI/RFI immunity
No need for additional shielding like with copper
Low-smoke, zero-halogen jacket meets fire protection regulations
Active Optical Cable Benefits
Premium Connectivity
Fiber-optic technology allows AOCs to make error-free ultra-high-bandwidth (up to 100G and beyond) interconnects at distances up to 100 meters.
Highly Affordable
AOCs, which feature a transceiver on each end, are nearly half the price of a single transceiver.
Convenient, All-in-One Cable Design
No more time consuming, expensive cleaning of fiber optic connectors to ensure optimal performance, just plug and play.
Reliable Performance
Once connected, the data keeps flowing, and with EMI/RFI protection due to fiber optic cabling construction, there’s no need to worry about signal disrupting interference.
Low Latency
AOCs feature eight fibers cut to exact lengths, which when combined with their all-in-one cable design with no additional points of connection, ensures that all signals arrive at the same time.
Highly Flexible
Good for use at almost any length, active optical cables are perfect for point-to-point, intra-rack and rack-to-rack connections of high speed networking equipment
Active Optical Cable Application Diagrams
Perfect for point-to-point, intrarack, and rack-to-rack connections of high-performance networking equipment utilizing 10G SFP+, 25G SFP28, 40G QSFP+, and 100G QSFP28 in Ethernet, Infiniband, Fibre Channel, PCI-Express, SAS/SATA applications, and more.
EMI-RFI resistant AOCs offer an unbeatable cost/performance ratio for your storage connections. Compatible with Black Box AV over IP systems, they ensure perfect medical imagery transmissions, too
