NVIDIA MFP7E30-N040 Passive Fiber Cable

Overview

The NVIDIA MFP7E30-N040 is a 40-meter passive fiber optic cable designed for high-speed data transmission in surveillance and network infrastructure. It utilizes single-mode fiber (SMF) with MPO12 APC connectors on both ends, ensuring a clean signal path for demanding applications requiring extended reach and bandwidth. This cable is critical for connecting network switches, servers, or surveillance appliances where standard copper cabling falls short, such as linking buildings or extending network segments across large facilities. The MFP7E30-N040 model provides a specific length for planned deployments.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with network equipment featuring MPO12 APC fiber optic ports. It is compatible with NVIDIA's own networking hardware and any third-party devices that adhere to the MPO12 APC standard for single-mode fiber connections. This includes many enterprise-grade network switches, media converters, and direct-attach storage solutions used in modern surveillance systems.

Installation Notes

The cable dimensions are 6.00 x 6.00 x 2.50 inches (L x W x H) and it weighs 0.75 lb, making it manageable for installation. Ensure connectors are clean before mating to prevent signal degradation. Avoid sharp bends that exceed the minimum bend radius for single-mode fiber to maintain signal integrity and prevent damage. The passive nature means no power is required for the cable itself.
