NVIDIA/Mellanox MCA7J50-H005R Compatible 200G QSFP56 4 x 50G PAM4 to 2 x 100G QSFP56 2 x 50G PAM4 Etherne Active Copper Breakout Cable, 5m (16ft)

This HT cable matches the MCA7J50-H005R requirement for NVIDIA/Mellanox equipment. The 5m (16ft) assembly supports 200G operation and provides an actively conditioned copper link for the stated high-speed interface; its complete electrical and mechanical details are listed below.

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to NVIDIA/Mellanox MCA7J50-H005R
• 200G connectivity at 200Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56
• Fixed length and part number: 5m (16ft), MCA7J50-H005R
• Cable construction: Active Twinax
• Conductor specification: 28AWG
• Maximum power consumption: ≤1.5W
• Minimum bend radius: 31.5mm

The rated power consumption is ≤1.5W. Include this load in the host-port power and thermal budget, especially in densely populated switches. Maintain front-panel clearance and do not bundle the cable so tightly that it obstructs airflow around the connectors.

MCA7J50-H005R occupies the middle of this family between MCA7J50-H003R at 3m (10ft) and MCA7J50-H007R at 7m (23ft). It adds 2m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 2m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

This assembly uses 28AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 31.5mm. 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 intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include IEEE 802.3cd, SFF-8665, QSFP MSA, SFF-8679, SFF-8636, InfiniBand HDR. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56 configuration divides the high-speed interface into multiple lower-speed connections. Verify the upstream lane assignment, downstream port speeds and breakout setting on the host before connecting the assembly. Each branch must attach to the correct remote interface.

The 5m (16ft) length gives MCA7J50-H005R more freedom for adjacent-rack and row-end deployments. Longer copper runs need particular attention to routing weight and bend control; the ACC specification and host support must still match the intended link.

Our compatibility setup for NVIDIA/Mellanox MCA7J50-H005R is checked together with the physical 5m (16ft) assembly. Factory verification covers connector condition, host identification, error-free link establishment and electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Providing the exact host model and firmware release helps us identify platform-specific requirements before production.

This product is ordered as MCA7J50-H005R in 5m (16ft). Include the equipment model and software release if you would like a pre-order compatibility review. Other lengths use different part numbers and should not be substituted into the same order line.

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.

Lead time for ordinary configurations is normally one to three working days, while production quantities are confirmed with the order. We can arrange express courier or economy freight according to destination and carton volume, or hand the shipment to your appointed logistics provider.
