Introduction
NVIDIA® MCP1650-V0xxEyy DAC (Direct Attach Copper) cables are high speed, cost-effective alternatives to fiber optics in 200GbE Ethernet applications.
The QSFP56 passive copper cable1 contains eight high-speed copper pairs, each operating at data rates of up to 50Gb/s. Each QSFP56 port comprises an EEPROM providing product information, which can be read by the host system.[
NVIDIA unique-quality cable solutions provide power-efficient connectivity for short distance interconnects. It enables 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.
