Frequently Asked Questions
What is a 10GBase-AOC SFP+ cable used for?
A 10GBase-AOC SFP+ cable provides 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity between network switches, routers, and servers equipped with SFP+ ports. It's ideal for data center interconnects, high-speed backbone links, and applications requiring reliable multi-gigabit performance over distances up to 25 meters.
Is this active optical cable compatible with Arista Networks equipment?
Yes. The AddOn AOC-S-S-10G-25M-AO is 100% Arista compatible, programmed and tested to ensure full compliance with Arista Networks SFP+ port specifications and performance requirements. It meets all MSA standards for certified interoperability.
What are the advantages of a 25-meter active optical cable?
A 25-meter active optical cable eliminates distance limitations of shorter copper connections, enabling flexible network design across larger data centers and campuses. The 850 nm multi-mode fiber provides low-latency, high-bandwidth performance while maintaining TAA compliance for regulated environments.
How does TAA compliance benefit my procurement?
TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance ensures this 10GBase-AOC cable meets U.S. government procurement standards, making it eligible for federal contracts and regulated purchasing environments without additional certification delays.
