NVIDIA MFA1A00-E005 AOC Cable IB EDR up to 100Gb/s QSFP
5m
Overview
100Gb/s QSFP28 MMF Active Optical Cables
NVIDIA Networking QSFP28 VCSEL-based (Vertical Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser)
active optical cables are designed for use in InfiniBand 100Gb/s EDR systems.
100G EDR AOCs are the most popular interconnect used in very high-speed
InfiniBand High Performance Computing (HPC) environments as they offer
predictable latency, very low power (2.2W) and enable increased air flow,
tighter bend radii and significantly longer reach compared to DAC cables. Since
the AOC is hot pluggable, it is easy to install and replace.
MFA1A00-Exxx has a standard SFF-8665 compliant QSFP28 port on the electrical
side towards the host system. It contains four multi-mode fibers (MMF) optic
transceivers per end, each operating at data rates of up to
26Gb/s.
MFA1A00-Exxx offers selectable retiming per lane for both its optical
transmitters and receivers for the 25-26Gbp/s rates, but the AOC also supports
lower bit rates without retiming. The transmitters have programmable input
equalizers and input squelch function, while the receivers have programmable
output amplitude and pre-emphasis.
NVIDIA's unique, quality, active, fiber, cable solutions provide
power-efficient connectivity for data center interconnects. They enable higher
port bandwidth, density and configurability at a low cost and reduced power
requirement in the data centers. Rigorous production testing ensures the best
out-of-the-box installation experience, performance and
durability.
