Axiom 7 m 40GBase Active Optical Cable

The Axiom SFP-10GB-AOC07M-AX is a 7 m active optical cable built for 40GBase network links. It arrives pre-configured with application-specific code for OEM router and switch compatibility. The cable weighs .33 lbs and is supplied in new condition. It targets network engineers who need a direct attach connection between compatible SFP+ ports.

Practical limits of the 40GBase interface

The 40GBase standard defines the signalling rate this cable supports. Active optical construction extends reach compared to passive copper without adding external power requirements. The fixed 7 m length sets the maximum device separation. Buyers who need longer runs or different connector types must select another cable assembly.

Replaces OEM active optical cables

This Axiom cable replaces original equipment manufacturer active optical cables at the same 40GBase data rate. It fits and functions identically to the OEM part in qualified switch and router ports. The upgrade is worth it when a compatible spare or installation cable is required without sourcing the vendor-branded unit. It does not serve links that operate at other speeds or form factors.
