Axiom 470-ABLV-AX 10Gbase-Aoc Cable

The Axiom 470-ABLV-AX is a 10Gbase-Aoc active optical cable with SFP+ connectors on both ends. It spans 6.6 ft and uses fibre-optic transmission for 10 Gb/s links. The cable is built for the Dell Force10 Z9500 platform. It arrived on the manufacturer list in 2025.

Suited for 10G SFP+ links on Force10 Z9500

This cable suits network engineers who need a 10 Gb/s SFP+ direct-attach link on a Dell Force10 Z9500 switch. It is not for users who require copper twinax cabling or longer reach than 6.6 ft. Buyers needing different connector types or higher speeds should look at other products.

6.6 ft reach for 10 Gb/s SFP+ ports

The 6.6 ft length comfortably handles rack-to-rack or intra-rack 10 Gb/s connections on the Force10 Z9500. It runs out when the link distance exceeds 6.6 ft or when the port speed moves beyond 10 Gb/s. The active optical design supports the rated speed across the full cable length.

Questions about this item

What switch port does the SFP+ connector on this Axiom cable plug into?

The SFP+ connectors on this Axiom 470-ABLV-AX cable plug directly into SFP+ ports on the Dell Force10 Z9500 switch.

Will this active optical cable link correctly if the other end is a legacy 1 Gb SFP module?

This cable is built for 10Gbase-AOC speeds; a legacy 1 Gb SFP module will not establish a link with it.

How can I confirm the 6.6 Ft cable is passing traffic after I connect it to the Z9500?

Check the Z9500 port LEDs for a solid link light and verify the interface shows up and increments counters in the switch CLI.
