Brocade 10G-SFPP-AOC-2501 Compatible 10G SFP+ Active Optical Cable, 25m (82ft)

For short, high-density connections, this AOC cable combines 10G performance with a fixed 25m (82ft) cable run. It corresponds to Brocade 10G-SFPP-AOC-2501 and uses a factory-terminated active optical link with the optical engines and fiber integrated into the assembly.

OEM Part Number: 10G-SFPP-AOC-2501HT Part Number: 10G-SFPP-AOC-2501

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Brocade 10G-SFPP-AOC-2501
• 10G connectivity at 10Gbps
• Interface configuration: SFP+ to SFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 25m (82ft), 10G-SFPP-AOC-2501
• Cable construction: OM3
• Maximum power consumption: <0.8W
• Minimum bend radius: 30mm

The rated power consumption is <0.8W. Include this load in the host-port power and thermal budget, especially in densely populated switches. Maintain front-panel clearance and do not bundle the cable so tightly that it obstructs airflow around the connectors.

The optical engines and fiber are permanently integrated into this AOC. There are no detachable optical modules to clean or exchange. Handle the complete assembly by its connector housings and cable, and keep both ends matched to the same interface specification.

The extended 25m (82ft) reach supports connections across adjacent racks or between separated equipment rows. Secure the cable along its route, protect both ends from pull loads and preserve ventilation. The integrated AOC construction avoids a chain of separate modules and patch leads.

10G-SFPP-AOC-2501 occupies the middle of this family between 10G-SFPP-AOC-2001 at 20m (66ft) and 10G-SFPP-AOC-3001 at 30m (98ft). It adds 5m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 5m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

This assembly uses OFNP jacket, minimum bend radius 30mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include SFF-8636, 1xInfiniBand QDR,DDR,SDR, 10G Gigabit Ethernet. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The assembly is configured for equipment that recognizes 10G-SFPP-AOC-2501. Before shipment, we inspect both connectors and verify identification, link establishment and optical link operation, receive activity and diagnostic readouts. Host hardware and firmware revisions can affect third-party cable acceptance, so customers can provide the equipment model and software release for a pre-order compatibility review.

When ordering, specify 10G-SFPP-AOC-2501, cable length 25m (82ft) and the host platform. This allows our team to verify both the physical assembly and the compatibility requirement before production. Neutral labeling and customer packing lists can be arranged for volume orders.

Before packing, our team checks the cable jacket, connector boots, latches and identification of each assembly. The cable is then secured in a loose coil and protected against dust and connector impact. Neutral packaging, customer part-number labels and project-specific carton lists can be supplied on request.

Available stock is usually packed and handed to the carrier within one to three working days. Delivery can be arranged by international express, air cargo or sea freight, with tracking details supplied after dispatch. Freight-collect shipments and delivery to a customer warehouse or forwarder can also be coordinated.
