What is the benefit of choosing an active optical cable over a passive copper DAC for a 5m distance?
At a 5-meter length, passive copper cables often suffer from signal degradation and are very thick; the S+AO0005 uses active optical fiber, which is thinner, more flexible, and ensures error-free 10Gbps data transmission across the entire span.
Will this 5m cable work in high-density rack environments with poor airflow?
The S+AO0005 is designed to operate within standard data center temperature ranges; however, Apsardze24.lv recommends maintaining basic rack ventilation to ensure the active components in the SFP+ heads do not exceed their thermal limits during high-load 10Gbps transfers.
Can I use the MikroTik S+AO0005 cable with the RB4011 series routers?
Yes, this active optical cable is fully compatible with the MikroTik RB4011 series. Unlike passive direct attach cables like the S+DA0001 or S+DA0003, the S+AO0005 provides the active circuitry required for stable 10Gbps performance on those specific models.
What is the warranty and support policy for this product?
Purchasing through Apsardze24.lv provides you with a full 2-Year Warranty. We offer local technical service in Riga and fast shipping to customers throughout Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania.
Is this the official MikroTik EU version of the cable?
Yes, this is the official MikroTik version designed for the European market. It is fully recognized by RouterOS, allowing you to view digital diagnostics and cable information directly through the software interface.
How much power does the S+AO0005 consume compared to standard transceivers?
While active cables draw slightly more power than passive copper ones to drive the lasers, they are generally more efficient than using two separate SFP+ modules and a patch lead. For specific milliwatt ratings for your hardware configuration, please contact our technical support at [email protected].
Can the S+AO0005 be used to connect a 10Gbps port to a 1Gbps SFP port?
This cable is specifically designed for 10Gbps SFP+ to SFP+ connections and does not support auto-negotiation to 1Gbps on most hardware. It is intended for high-speed links between 10G-capable devices such as CCR or CSS series MikroTik units.
Is the MikroTik SFP+ 10Gbps Active Optics Direct Attach Cable 5m Orange (S+AO0005) hot-swappable?
Yes, this cable is hot-swappable, meaning you can plug it into or remove it from your SFP+ ports without powering down your switches or routers. This allows for maintenance or upgrades without interrupting the rest of your network.
Does this orange 10Gbps cable support the InfiniBand protocol?
Yes, the S+AO0005 is designed to support the InfiniBand protocol in addition to 10-Gigabit Ethernet. This makes it an ideal high-speed interconnect for storage area networks and high-performance computing clusters.
Sandris Ozols –
I bought this MikroTik 5m cable from apsardze24.lv to connect my switches, and it works like a charm. The orange color makes it easy to spot in my rack. Delivery was quick and the service was excellent. Definitely a solid, cost-effective solution for my 10Gbps setup. Highly recommended!
