What This Is NOT

NOT a passive copper DAC. Active optical cable using VCSEL multi-mode fiber technology with integrated optics on each end — reaches longer distances than DAC.
NOT a transceiver. Fixed-length cable assembly; the optics are integrated and cannot be removed or replaced.
NOT a splitter or breakout cable. 1-to-1 cable assembly only.
NOT bundled with adapters or transceivers — sold standalone.


Capabilities & Features

VCSEL multi-mode optical engine, 850 nm.
Active retiming on each end for clean signal regeneration.
DDM (Digital Diagnostic Monitoring) — temperature, voltage, optical power readable via I²C.
EEPROM on each end with product identification and operating data.
Hot-pluggable into any matching QSFP/SFP cage.


Compatibility & Constraints

Primary connector: QSFP56 (compliant with MSA cage spec).
Reach: 3m fixed length.
Speed: 200GbE.
Compatible adapters: ConnectX-6 or ConnectX-7.
Compatible switches: NVIDIA Spectrum-2 / Spectrum-3 / Quantum-1 QM8700.
Power: drawn from host port (no external supply required).


Deployment & Use Cases

Top-of-Rack to server interconnect.
HPC compute node fabric.
AI training cluster east-west bandwidth.
