AOC active optical cable is an optical fiber with a module attached to each end, which is equivalent to a cable and a module.

Aactive optical cable (AOC) has many advantages such as high transmission rate, long transmission distance, low energy consumption, and convenient use. It can replace passive optical cables or copper wire-based cable systems to be applied in high-density and high-bandwidth situations and has become the ideal transmission cables for data centers, consumer electronics and other fields.

active optical cable, also known as AOC, AOC is the abbreviation of Active Optical Fiber. At one end of the active optical cable, the data is input into an electrical signal, and the electrical signal is converted into an optical signal of a specific wavelength through a photoelectric conversion device. The optical signal is modulated and coupled and then input into the transmission optical cable. After the optical signal reaches the other end, the photoelectric detection device detects, amplifies, and processes the signals, and then the corresponding electrical signal is output. The reverse transmission principle is the same. Passive optical cables have obvious price advantages over active optical components, so why use active optical cables?

This means that for optical transceiver manufacturers, in terms of many mature products, the technical solutions used by everyone are highly similar, and there are not too many thresholds.

We know that both 100G active optical cables (AOC) and 100g fibre cable (DAC) are used to transmit data. However, there are some differences between 100G active optical cable and 100G direct attach cables. Next, we will introduce the difference between these two types of cables in detail.

In recent years, optical networks have developed rapidly. In order to ensure the stability and flexibility of transmission, users and manufacturers require a newer type of transmission product to achieve higher-performance signal transmission. To meet this need, active optical cable (AOC) appeared.
