This passive fiber optic cable functions as an efficient optical pathway for high-speed data transmission. Each MPO connector contains 12 fiber positions, with 8 actively used for bidirectional communication (4 transmit and 4 receive lanes per direction). Engineered as a Type-B cable, it performs an internal crossover of the transmit and receive fiber pairs. Specifically, optical signals from Tx lanes 1-4 at one end are routed to Rx lanes 12-9 at the opposite end, ensuring proper alignment between transmitters and receivers. The 8° angled polish of the APC connectors is essential for 400G/NDR applications, as it scatters reflected light away from the fiber core, maintaining signal clarity and minimizing bit errors—a crucial requirement for reliable data center cable performance over longer distances.

• Data Center Inter-Rack Connectivity: Connecting equipment across multiple racks within the same or adjacent rows.
• High-Performance Computing Clusters: Forming extended low-latency links in NDR InfiniBand fabrics for scientific computing and AI workloads.
• Storage Network Expansion: Connecting storage arrays to compute clusters across longer distances within data centers.
• Switch-to-Switch Backbone Links: Establishing 400G spine-leaf connections that span greater distances.
• Extended Reach Adapter Connections: Connecting top-of-rack switches to servers located further away in the data center layout.

Note: Available in various lengths from 3m to 50m to suit different deployment needs.

• Extended Reach Solution: The 30-meter length addresses specific deployment scenarios where longer connections are required between racks or across data center aisles.
• NVIDIA Ecosystem Validation: Unlike generic MPO cables, this product is tested and validated within the complete NVIDIA networking ecosystem for guaranteed compatibility and performance.
• Future-Ready Design: APC polish and OM4 fiber ensure readiness for current 400G/NDR and future network speed advancements.
• Superior Optical Performance: Rigorous manufacturing controls ensure consistent low insertion loss and high return loss characteristics, critical for maintaining signal integrity over longer distances.

* Insertion Loss calculated per formula: 0.35 dB + 0.0004 x Length (meters).

Q1: What is the maximum distance supported by the MFP7E10-N030 cable?
A: This 30m fiber cable is part of a product family designed for distances up to 50 meters when using OM4 multimode fiber. The 30-meter length is ideal for many extended intra-data center applications.

Q2: Is this cable compatible with 200G or 100G networks?
A: Yes. The cable is fully backward compatible. When used with appropriate 200G (HDR) or 100G (EDR/100GbE) transceivers, it will operate reliably at those speeds.

Q3: Can I use MPO-12/UPC transceivers with this APC cable?
A: No. MPO-12/APC and MPO-12/UPC connectors have different polishes and are physically incompatible. Attempting to connect them will damage the connectors. Ensure your transceivers are also MPO-12/APC type (typically with green bodies).

Q4: What are the special considerations for installing a 30-meter fiber cable?
A: For longer cables like this data center cable, proper cable management is crucial. Use vertical and horizontal cable managers, avoid sharp bends (maintain >30mm radius), and ensure the cable is not under tension. Plan the route to minimize excess length.

Q5: How is the cable tested for quality assurance?
A: Every cable undergoes rigorous production testing, including insertion loss, return loss, and continuity tests for all active fibers, ensuring it meets NVIDIA's strict performance specifications before shipment.

• Connector Compatibility: Confirm all connected transceivers and panels use MPO-12/APC interfaces to prevent damage.
• Installation Environment: Operate within specified temperature (0°C to +70°C) and humidity ranges. For longer runs, account for potential thermal expansion.
• ESD Safety: Use proper ESD protection when handling the transceivers this cable connects to.
• Physical Installation: Avoid tight bends, crushing, or excessive pulling. Use appropriate strain relief and cable management systems for long cable runs.
• Cleaning & Inspection: Always inspect and clean MPO connectors with certified tools before mating, especially after long-term storage or during reconfiguration.
