NVIDIA/Mellanox MC220731V-025 Compatible 56G QSFP+ Ethernet Active Optical Cable, 25m (82ft)

For short, high-density connections, this AOC cable combines High-Speed performance with a fixed 25m (82ft) cable run. It corresponds to NVIDIA/Mellanox MC220731V-025 and uses a factory-terminated active optical link with the optical engines and fiber integrated into the assembly.

OEM Part Number: MC220731V-025HT Part Number: MC220731V-025

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to NVIDIA/Mellanox MC220731V-025
• High-Speed connectivity at FDR 56Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP+ to QSFP+
• Fixed length and part number: 25m (82ft), MC220731V-025
• 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.

MC220731V-025 occupies the middle of this family between MC220731V-020 at 20m (66ft) and MC220731V-030 at 30m (98ft). 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 56G InfiniBand , 4x FDR, Fibre Channel. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

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 25m (82ft) 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.

Each MC220731V-025 compatible cable is powered up on a suitable test interface rather than checked only for continuity. We confirm the expected identification and observe optical link operation, receive activity and diagnostic readouts. Because operating systems can apply different qualification rules by hardware revision, the intended NVIDIA/Mellanox platform should be included with the order.

When ordering, specify MC220731V-025, cable length 25m (82ft) and the host platform. This allows our team to verify both the physical assembly and the compatibility requirement before production. Neutral labeling and customer packing lists can be arranged for volume orders.

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.

Stock items are generally dispatched within one to three working days after order confirmation. DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT and EMS are available for international delivery; larger consolidated orders can move by air or sea freight. Customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
