NVIDIA Mellanox Compatible - Passive Copper 800GBASE, OSFP to 2X 400G QSFP112, Breakout (DAC) Direct Attach Cables
An OSFP (Octal Small Form-factor Pluggable) DAC cable is a high-speed, hot-pluggable factory terminated cable designed for data center and networking applications. It integrates multiple optical interfaces into a compact form factor, typically offering eight lanes of high-speed transmission. OSFP transceivers support various protocols and data rates, including Ethernet, InfiniBand, and Fibre Channel, with speeds reaching up to 800 Gbps. They feature advanced thermal management and power efficiency capabilities, enabling reliable performance in dense and demanding environments. OSFP transceivers facilitate flexible and scalable network deployments, crucial for modern data centers and telecommunications infrastructures. These cables utilize copper COAX wiring and are an ideal low-cost option for short reach applications.
