Cisco Active Optical Cables - Refurbished, Used

Common use cases include rack-to-rack or switch-to-switch connections where low latency and reliable performance are critical. AOCs come with SFP+ or QSFP connectors pre-terminated to eliminate field termination issues, making them truly plug-and-play. Their slim, lightweight design enhances cable management and mitigates EMI concerns, resulting in cleaner, faster infrastructure in densely populated environments.

Compared to direct-attach copper (DAC), Cisco AOCs offer higher performance across longer distances, better signal integrity, and simplified network design—especially for data centers, aggregation racks, and high-performance clusters.

At NetworkTigers, both refurbished and used Cisco Active Optical Cables are available. Refurbished units undergo rigorous testing and verification to ensure they meet performance standards. Used units are confirmed ready for production networks, offering dependable performance from day one. Inventory is kept in stock for fast fulfillment, orders ship quickly, and every purchase includes a 365-day warranty, delivering long-term confidence and value.
