Product Description
MCP1600-C001E30N 100GbE QSFP28 Direct Attach Copper Cable
The Mellanox MCP1600-C001E30N is a high-performance, cost-effective passive copper cable designed for 100GbE applications. It provides reliable, low-latency connectivity for data centers and enterprise networks, supporting high bandwidth and density with minimal power consumption.
Key Features
- Supports 100GbE data rates with low power consumption (<0.1W)
- Hot-pluggable and compliant with SFF-8685 and SFF-8636
- RoHS compliant with LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket
- Low bit error rate (BER < 1E-15) with Mellanox systems
- Available in multiple lengths and AWG configurations
Technology & Standards
This passive copper cable complies with IEEE 802.3bj standards, supporting both CA-25G-N (No-FEC) and CA-25G-L (RS-FEC) for lengths up to 5m. It uses a 4-channel copper design, each operating at 25Gb/s, and includes an EEPROM for device identification and management.
How It Works
The cable consists of four shielded twinaxial copper pairs, transmitting data at 25 Gb/s per lane. The integrated EEPROM stores vital product data, allowing the host system to identify and configure the cable automatically. The passive design ensures low latency and high signal integrity.
Applications
- Data center spine-leaf architectures
- High-performance computing (HPC) clusters
- Cloud infrastructure and enterprise networking
- Storage area networks (SAN) and network-attached storage (NAS)

FAQ
Q: What is the maximum length supported without signal degradation?
A: Up to 2m for CA-25G-N, and up to 5m for CA-25G-L with RS-FEC.
Q: Is this cable compatible with non-Mellanox switches?
A: Yes, it is designed to be interoperable with standard QSFP28 ports.
Q: What does the "CA-N" and "CA-L" designation mean?
A: CA-N indicates no forward error correction, while CA-L uses Reed-Solomon FEC for longer reaches.
Precautions
- Do not bend beyond the minimum bend radius (5x cable diameter for single bend).
- Ensure operating temperature and humidity are within specified ranges.
- Verify compatibility with host hardware before installation.
