Product Description
Product Overview
The NVIDIA® MFA1A00-E005 is a high-performance 100Gb/s QSFP28 Active Optical Cable specifically engineered for InfiniBand EDR systems. This fiber optic solution delivers exceptional bandwidth, low latency, and reliable performance for demanding data center and high-performance computing applications.
Key Features
- Designed for 100Gb/s InfiniBand EDR applications
- 5-meter length ideal for rack-to-rack connections
- Hot-pluggable QSFP28 form factor for easy installation
- Low power consumption: 2.2W typical per end with retiming
- Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) via I²C interface
- RoHS compliant and LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) rated
Technology & Standards
This Active Optical Cable incorporates VCSEL-based transceiver technology and complies with SFF-8665 and SFF-8636 standards. It features programmable input equalization, output pre-emphasis, and selectable retiming capabilities for optimal signal integrity in high-speed environments.
Working Principle
The AOC converts electrical signals into optical signals using integrated VCSEL lasers, transmitting data over multi-mode fibers. The embedded DSP enhances signal quality through retiming and equalization, ensuring exceptional performance with bit error rates below 10⁻¹⁵.
Applications
- High-performance computing (HPC) clusters
- InfiniBand EDR fabric connectivity
- Artificial intelligence and machine learning infrastructure
- Data center spine-leaf architectures
- High-frequency trading networks
- Scientific research and supercomputing facilities
