Product Description

Product Overview

The NVIDIA® MFA1A00-C003 is a high-performance 100Gb/s QSFP28 Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed for data centers requiring high bandwidth, low latency, and reliable connectivity. This fiber optic cable supports both InfiniBand EDR and 100Gb Ethernet protocols, making it a versatile solution for modern data-intensive environments.

Key Features

  • Supports 100Gb/s data rates for Ethernet and InfiniBand EDR
  • Hot-pluggable QSFP28 form factor
  • Low power consumption: 2.2W typical per end
  • Up to 100m reach with multi-mode fiber
  • Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) via I²C
  • RoHS compliant and environmentally friendly

Technology & Standards

This Active Optical Cable utilizes VCSEL-based transceivers and complies with SFF-8665 and SFF-8636 standards. It supports programmable input equalization, output pre-emphasis, and selectable retiming for optimized signal integrity.

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 low bit error rates (BER < 10⁻¹⁵).

Applications

  • Data center spine-leaf architectures
  • High-performance computing (HPC) clusters
  • Cloud infrastructure and hyperscale networks
  • Storage area networks (SAN) and network-attached storage (NAS)
  • AI and machine learning training networks
