The Mellanox MCP1600-E003E26 is a high-performance 100Gb/s QSFP28 direct attach copper (DAC) cable designed for InfiniBand EDR and Ethernet applications. This 3-meter passive cable assembly integrates four high-speed copper pairs, each operating at 25Gb/s, delivering aggregate bandwidth of 100Gb/s.
Key Benefits
Short-reach 100G interconnect with passive copper design
Top-of-rack (ToR) switch to server connections in 100G EDR InfiniBand fabrics
High-performance computing (HPC) clusters and GPU-based systems
Data center leaf-spine architectures requiring short-reach copper links
Storage area networks (SAN) and NAS head interconnects
Test and measurement setups where deterministic low latency is critical
