Specifications

Power and Thermal Planning

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.

Position Within the Length Range

10GB-F07-SFPP occupies the middle of this family between 10GB-F05-SFPP at 5m (16ft) and 10GB-F10-SFPP at 10m (33ft). It adds 2m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 3m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

Structured Pathways and Serviceability

Treat the direct-attach assembly as part of the permanent pathway plan even when the link is expected to be temporary. Follow the intended horizontal and vertical managers, maintain the specified bend radius and leave service access around both ports. A small, supported service allowance is preferable to excess slack concealed inside a rack or placed under cable-tie pressure. For this assembly, the minimum bend radius is 30mm; the stated power consumption is <0.8W; the jacket material is OFNP.

Cable Construction and Routing

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.

Network and Protocol Considerations

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.

Integrated Optical Assembly

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.

Length Selection and Installation Planning

Extended reach changes the installation checks for 10GB-F07-SFPP. Confirm that 7m (23ft) follows the intended route without tension, then verify that intermediate supports do not squeeze the jacket or hide the connectors behind adjacent cables. Both hosts must still match the stated interface and lane configuration. Within this family, 10GB-F05-SFPP is shorter at 5m (16ft), while 10GB-F10-SFPP is the next longer choice at 10m (33ft); comparing those two boundaries helps avoid both tension and unnecessary slack.

Ordering Information

Include the part number, fixed length, quantity and required pathway or rack grouping in the order information. The host model and firmware release are useful for change-controlled deployments. Different lengths should remain separate order lines so delivered labels and packing records agree with the pathway plan. Quantity and any labeling instructions should be attached specifically to 10GB-F07-SFPP.

Extreme Networks Compatibility and Factory Testing

Verification covers the physical connectors, expected host identity and an operating link with available diagnostic indications. We distinguish this complete check from a simple continuity test. Platform model and software release can be reviewed in advance where the installation has strict documentation or change-control requirements. The check includes receive activity and diagnostic indications, followed by a final inspection of both ends.

Shipping and Lead Time

Available stock is generally dispatched within one to three working days after order confirmation, with production lead times advised for larger quantities. Worldwide courier services are available, with air or sea freight for consolidated shipments; freight-collect delivery and coordination with a customer’s logistics provider can be arranged.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

After connector inspection and link verification, the assembly is coiled without tight bends and packed with end protection. Labels can cross-reference the customer cable schedule, OEM part number and length. This supports both receiving checks and later moves, adds or changes. Neutral packaging and customer-specific packing documentation are available on request.
