OEM and customized 10G SFP+ to Duplex LC AOC solutions are available for network equipment manufacturers, system integrators, distributors, and infrastructure projects. Customization options may include cable length, OM2 or OM3 fiber selection, LC connector configuration, armored construction, connector labeling, product identification, packaging, branding, and other project-specific requirements.

For industrial and high-volume deployments, compatibility can be evaluated with specific switches, servers, storage systems, industrial Ethernet equipment, and other networking platforms. Customers can provide the target equipment, required transmission distance, fiber type, cable length, operating environment, and quantity for configuration evaluation.

What is the purpose of the Duplex LC interface?

The duplex LC interface provides separate transmit and receive optical paths through two LC connectors. This allows the cable to connect an SFP+ port directly to an existing duplex LC multimode fiber infrastructure without requiring an additional optical transceiver at the cable’s LC end.

Can this cable connect directly to an LC patch panel?

Yes. The LC/PC pigtail can be connected directly to compatible LC-based patch panels, fiber distribution units, or other duplex LC interfaces. This makes the cable particularly useful when integrating SFP+ equipment with an existing structured fiber cabling system.

What is the maximum reach of this AOC?

The specified reach is up to 82m when using OM2 multimode fiber and up to 300m with OM3 multimode fiber. The actual supported distance should be selected according to the fiber grade and the specifications of the connected networking equipment.

What does the integrated digital diagnostic monitoring do?

Digital diagnostics provide operating information through the module’s two-wire management interface. Supported host equipment can use this information for monitoring and troubleshooting parameters associated with the optical connection.

Why choose the industrial-grade version?

This model is designed for an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, allowing it to operate in environments with significantly greater temperature variation than standard commercial-grade products. The armored construction also provides additional mechanical protection for demanding installations.

Does the cable require a separate SFP+ transceiver?

No. The SFP+ end incorporates the optical transmitter and receiver, while the opposite end provides the duplex LC optical interface. This integrated design reduces the number of components required for a direct SFP+ to LC connection.
