Description

Add-On MCP1600-C005-AO 100G QSFP28 Direct Attach Copper Cable

Overview

The Add-On MCP1600-C005-AO is a TAA-compliant 100 Gigabit Ethernet direct attach copper (DAC) cable. It provides a cost-effective, low-latency interconnect for short-reach applications, typically within a single rack or between adjacent racks. This cable is designed for high-density data center environments where efficient network connectivity is paramount, directly connecting Mellanox switches or network interface cards (NICs) equipped with QSFP28 ports.

Compatibility

This 1-meter cable is engineered for compatibility with Mellanox switches and devices featuring QSFP28 ports. It is suitable for use with Mellanox Spectrum switches and other network equipment requiring a 100GBASE-CU QSFP28 to QSFP28 connection. Ensure your network infrastructure supports the 100Gbps data rate and QSFP28 form factor for seamless integration.

Installation Notes

The MCP1600-C005-AO features plug-and-play installation. Simply insert the QSFP28 connectors into the corresponding ports on your network devices. The copper construction offers inherent signal integrity for short distances, minimizing the need for active signal conditioning. Ensure the ports are free of debris before insertion. The cable is designed for static deployment within controlled environments.
