MFS1S00-H010V 200Gb/s QSFP56 Active Optical Cable (AOC)
1. Product Overview
The MFS1S00-H010V is a high-performance 200Gb/s QSFP56 Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed for next-generation data center and high-performance computing interconnects. It supports both InfiniBand HDR and 200 Gigabit Ethernet standards, delivering reliable, low-latency, and power-efficient connectivity. This Optical Fiber Cable is ideal for high-density rack deployments and long-reach applications where copper cabling falls short.
2. Key Characteristics
- Supports 200Gb/s InfiniBand HDR and 200GbE
- Hot-pluggable QSFP56 form factor
- Up to 100m reach over multi-mode fiber
- Low power consumption: 5.0W typical per end
- RoHS compliant and SFF-8636 management interface
- Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM) per lane
3. Technology & Standards
This passive fiber cable alternative leverages VCSEL-based optical technology and complies with industry standards including SFF-8665, SFF-8636, and InfiniBand HDR. It uses PAM4 modulation for high-speed data transmission and supports advanced features like retiming, programmable equalization, and real-time diagnostics.
4. Working Principle
The AOC converts electrical signals into optical signals using integrated VCSEL transceivers at each end. Data is transmitted over four multi-mode fibers, each operating at 50Gb/s. The cable includes built-in signal retiming and conditioning to ensure signal integrity over extended distances, making it superior to passive copper solutions.
5. Applications
- 200G InfiniBand HDR clusters
- 200GbE spine-leaf networks
- High-performance computing (HPC) environments
- Cloud data center interconnects
- AI and machine learning infrastructure
