NVIDIA/Mellanox MC2206310-020 Compatible 40G QSFP+ Ethernet Active Optical Cable, 20m (66ft)

This 20m (66ft) AOC cable is built for NVIDIA/Mellanox equipment requiring the MC2206310-020 interface. The 40Gbps link uses QSFP+ to QSFP+ and is supplied as one complete tested assembly.

OEM Part Number: MC2206310-020HT Part Number: MC2206310-020

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to NVIDIA/Mellanox MC2206310-020
• 40G connectivity at 40Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP+ to QSFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 20m (66ft), MC2206310-020
• Minimum bend radius: 30mm

This assembly uses OFNP jacket, minimum bend radius 30mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.

The optical engines and fiber are permanently integrated into this AOC. There are no detachable optical modules to clean or exchange. Handle the complete assembly by its connector housings and cable, and keep both ends matched to the same interface specification.

The extended 20m (66ft) reach supports connections across adjacent racks or between separated equipment rows. Secure the cable along its route, protect both ends from pull loads and preserve ventilation. The integrated AOC construction avoids a chain of separate modules and patch leads.

MC2206310-020 occupies the middle of this family between MC2206310-015 at 15m (49ft) and MC2206310-025 at 25m (82ft). It adds 5m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 5m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include 10G/40Gigabit Ethernet or Fibre Channel. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The HT cable carries the compatibility configuration associated with MC2206310-020, while its mechanical assembly remains the fixed 20m (66ft) version described here. Incoming inspection, connector examination and a live link test are completed before packing. Customers with unusually old or new NVIDIA/Mellanox software can request a pre-order check.

Use part number MC2206310-020 for the 20m (66ft) assembly. For mixed-length projects, list each required part number and quantity separately so that every cable can be tested and packed according to its intended installation.

Before packing, our team checks the cable jacket, connector boots, latches and identification of each assembly. The cable is then secured in a loose coil and protected against dust and connector impact. Neutral packaging, customer part-number labels and project-specific carton lists can be supplied on request.

Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days. Worldwide courier, air freight and sea freight options are available, and shipments can also be sent on your own courier account or delivered to an appointed forwarder.
