MFS1S00-H010E 200Gb/s QSFP56 Active Optical Cable
1. Product Overview
The MFS1S00-H010E is a high-performance 200Gb/s QSFP56 Active Optical Cable (AOC) designed for next-generation data center interconnects. This Optical Fiber Cable leverages VCSEL-based technology to deliver exceptional bandwidth, low latency, and extended reach compared to passive copper solutions. It is ideal for high-speed networking environments requiring reliable, hot-pluggable connectivity with minimal power consumption.
2. Key Characteristics
- Supports 200Gb/s InfiniBand HDR and 200 Gigabit Ethernet
- 4x 50Gb/s PAM4 modulation per lane
- Hot-pluggable QSFP56 form factor
- Low power consumption: 5.0W typical per end
- Reach up to 100 meters with multi-mode fiber
- RoHS compliant and SFF-8636 management interface
3. Technology & Standards
The MFS1S00-H010E complies with industry standards including SFF-8665, SFF-8636, and InfiniBand HDR. It features programmable Rx/Tx equalization, Digital Diagnostic Monitoring (DDM), and supports both NRZ and PAM4 modulation schemes. This passive fiber cable alternative offers enhanced signal integrity and error-free performance.
4. Working Principle
The AOC converts electrical signals into optical signals using VCSEL lasers, transmitting data over multi-mode fiber. Each end contains four transceivers operating at 50Gb/s. The built-in retiming mechanism ensures signal clarity over extended distances, making it superior to traditional Optical Fiber Cable solutions.
5. Applications
- 200G InfiniBand HDR clusters
- High-performance computing (HPC) environments
- Data center spine-leaf architectures
- Cloud infrastructure and enterprise networking
- AI and machine learning workloads
