Why choose it

This DAC is engineered for short-reach, high-bandwidth interconnects where fiber optics would add unnecessary cost and power. Passive design means no signal regeneration, ensuring minimal latency and power consumption. It is fully compatible with Mellanox MCP1650-H003E26, making it a drop-in replacement for original or third-party deployments.

Ideal use cases

• Top-of-rack to server connections in 200GbE networks
• InfiniBand HDR fabric links in HPC clusters
• Data center spine-leaf architecture within a rack
• High-frequency trading or AI/ML training clusters requiring low latency

Good to know

As a passive cable, it draws no power and introduces no additional heat. The 30 AWG copper construction balances flexibility with signal integrity over 3 meters. It supports hot swapping for easy maintenance. RoHS compliance ensures environmental safety. For longer distances, consider active optical cables or fiber transceivers.
