Reason Analysis of Using AOC Active Optical Cable in Data Center Wiring 40G/100G AOC active optical cable has been globally introduced throughout the data center field. Compared to 40G DAC copper cable, 40G AOC active optical cable has unparalleled advantages in data transmission environment above 7 meters, including the smaller size, lighter weight, easier bending, easier management, longer signal transmission distance, etc. In the data center, the same goals can be achieved with a 40G SR4 optical transceiver. The differences between 40G AOC active optical cable and SR4 optical transceiver are analyzed as follows: 1. Insertion loss analysis of 40G AOC active optical cable and SR4 optical transceiver With the same transmission distance, for SR4 optical transceiver, different optical fiber jumpers that are connected to the same module will produce different insertion loss and return loss, which is basically a common problem. However, as long as the variation is within the range, t
