MCA4K50 1600Gbps to 1600Gbps OSFP Active Copper Cable

Introduction

NVIDIA® MCA4K50 is a 1600Gb/s OSFP (Octal Small Formfactor Pluggable) to 1600 Gb/s OSFP Active Copper Cable which comes in IHS to IHS (Integrated Heat Sink) form factor for connecting Quantom 3 XDR switches.

Using the Octal Small Formfactor Plug (OSFP) and containing eight high-speed electrical copper pairs, each operating at data rates of up to 200Gb/s. The cable firmware supports InfiniBand XDR.

NVIDIA’s cable solutions provide power-efficient connectivity enabling higher port bandwidth, density and configurability at a low cost and reduced power requirement in the data centers. Rigorous cable production testing ensures best out-of-the-box installation experience, performance, and durability.
