AOC is a cabling technology that accepts the same electrical inputs as a direct attach cable, but uses optical fiber “between the connectors”. AOC uses electrical-to-optical conversion on the cable ends to improve speed and distance performance of the cable without sacrificing compatibility with standard electrical interfaces. As a leading AOC manufacturer, HANSUN AOC cable assemblies are designed in to meet needs for high-density cabling interconnect systems like data centers, and high-performance computing application.
