NVIDIA mellanox MFP7E10-N005 50m MPO-12/APC Multimode Fiber Cable | 8-Fiber Type-B for 800G/400G

High-performance 5-meter MPO-12/APC to MPO-12/APC multimode fiber cable with 8 active fibers—designed for 800G twin-port OSFP and 400G QSFP112 optical transceivers in InfiniBand NDR and 400GbE data center interconnects.

• MPO-12/APC female to MPO-12/APC female, 8-fiber Type-B crossover configuration
• 5-meter length with 3.0mm diameter, LSZH aqua jacket (OM3/OM4 multimode)
• Supports 800Gb/s twin-port OSFP and 400Gb/s OSFP/QSFP112 transceivers
• Angled Physical Contact (APC) 8° polish for minimal back reflection
• Insertion loss ≤0.35dB + 0.0004 x L, Return loss ≥35dB

• 8-Fiber Type-B Crossover: Fiber 1 connects to fiber 12 at opposite end—correct alignment for optical transceivers.
• APC Polish: 8-degree angled end face reduces back reflections, ensuring signal integrity for high-speed PAM4 modulation.
• Multimode OM3/OM4: 50/125µm fibers with aqua jacket; optimized for 400G/800G short-reach links up to 50m.
• LSZH Jacket: Low Smoke Zero Halogen material for safety in data center environments.
• Rigorous Testing: 100% insertion loss and return loss tested for reliable out-of-box performance.

The MFP7E10-N005 complies with IEC 61754-7 (MPO connector family), GR-1435, and ANSI/TIA/EIA 604-5. It uses 8 active multimode fibers (50/125µm) with APC 8° polish. The Type-B crossover wiring ensures correct Tx-to-Rx alignment per transceiver pinouts. Suitable for InfiniBand NDR, 400GbE, and NVLink protocols when used with compatible optical modules (MMA4Z00-NS, MMA1Z00-NS).

In a twin-port OSFP 800G transceiver, two 4-lane optical interfaces transmit and receive over separate fibers. The MFP7E10-N005 uses a Type-B crossover scheme: fiber 1 at end A connects to fiber 12 at end B, fiber 2 to fiber 11, etc. This ensures that the transmit laser from lane 1 aligns with the photodetector of lane 12 at the far end. The 8° angled polish (APC) directs any reflected light away from the laser cavity, preventing signal distortion and maintaining low bit error rates at 100G PAM4 per lane.

• Quantum-2 Switch to Switch: Connect twin-port OSFP 800G switches up to 5m apart.
• Switch to ConnectX-7/BlueField-3: Link ToR switches to 400G adapters (OSFP or QSFP112).
• NVLink Fabrics: Optical interconnection for GPU clusters using NVLink over fiber.
• Hyperscale Data Centers: Short-reach rack-to-rack optical links with patch panels.

Note: Operating temperature 0°C to 70°C, storage -40°C to 85°C. Minimum bend radius 30mm. Type-B crossover per IEC 61754-7.

• vs. Copper Cables: Longer reach (5m to 50m) with lower weight and better airflow in racks.
• APC Polish: Superior return loss (≥35dB) compared to UPC, critical for 100G-PAM4 links.
• Type-B Crossover: Plug-and-play compatibility with NVIDIA transceivers—no need for manual crossover.
• LSZH Jacket: Enhanced safety in data centers; reduces toxic fumes in case of fire.

A: It is designed for NVIDIA MMA4Z00-NS (twin-port OSFP DR8), MMA4Z00-NS400 (OSFP), and MMA1Z00-NS400 (QSFP112) optical modules used in ConnectX-7 and BlueField-3.

A: No. APC (angled) and UPC (ultra polish) connectors have different end faces and will not mate correctly—always use APC with APC.

A: Type-B crossover (fiber 1 to 12) matches the pinout of optical transceivers where transmitter lane 1 aligns with receiver lane 12 at the far end. Straight cables (Type-A) are for other applications like parallel optics with same pin layout.

A: Yes, it supports 400GBASE-SR8 and 800GBASE-SR8 when used with appropriate 400G/800G optical modules.

A: The minimum bend radius is 30mm anywhere on the cable. Avoid sharp bends near connectors.

• Clean Before Use: Always clean MPO connectors with appropriate one-click cleaners before insertion—contamination causes link errors.
• Dust Caps: Keep protective caps on until moment of installation; store caps for future use.
• ESD Awareness: Although the cable is passive, it plugs into ESD-sensitive transceivers—use grounded wrist straps.
• Bend Radius: Do not exceed 30mm bend radius; avoid tension on connectors.
• Compatibility: Verify transceiver type (APC vs UPC) before ordering—this cable is APC only.
