Description

The Arista AOC-S-S-10G-5M is a 10GbE SFP+ to SFP+ Active Optical Cable (AOC) delivering 10 Gbps over a 5-metre multi-mode fibre link at 850nm wavelength. Designed for high-density data centre environments, it is ideal for top-of-rack switching, high-performance computing (HPC), enterprise networking, and network storage interconnects — offering superior bit error rate (BER) performance over equivalent passive copper solutions.

The cable features hot-pluggable SFP+ connectors on both ends, a high-speed VCSEL transmitter and PIN receiver, lightweight construction, and a small bending radius for easy cable management in dense rack deployments. Operating on a single 3.3V supply at just 0.8W, it is fully compatible with Arista 10GbE switches, routers, NICs, and network storage systems.

FAQs

Q: What is the reach of the AOC-S-S-10G-5M?
A: The AOC-S-S-10G-5M supports a cable length of 5 metres, making it suitable for within-rack and top-of-rack interconnects in data centre environments.

Q: What fibre type does this cable use?
A: It operates over Multi-Mode Fibre (MMF) at an 850nm wavelength, using high-speed VCSEL transmitters on both ends for reliable 10 Gbps optical transmission.

Q: Which Arista devices is the AOC-S-S-10G-5M compatible with?
A: This AOC is designed for use with Arista Networks 10GbE switches, routers, network interface cards (NICs), and network storage systems equipped with SFP+ ports.

Q: How does an Active Optical Cable differ from a passive DAC cable?
A: Unlike passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cables, AOCs use optical fibre with active transceivers built into each end. This provides lower signal attenuation, better BER performance, lighter weight, and greater flexibility — especially important in dense cabling environments.

Q: Can I purchase the AOC-S-S-10G-5M in Australia from IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) stocks Arista active optical cables and ships Australia-wide. Contact our team for pricing, volume discounts, and compatibility advice for your deployment.

Q: Is this cable available in other lengths?
A: Yes. The Arista 10GbE SFP+ AOC series is available in 1m, 3m, 5m, 7m, 10m, 15m, 20m, 25m, and 30m variants to suit a range of data centre interconnect distances.
