NVIDIA/Mellanox MCP1650-V01AE30 Compatible 200G QSFP56 4 x 50G PAM4 Ethernet Passive Copper Twinax Cable, 1.5m (5ft)

The MCP1650-V01AE30 cable offers a direct QSFP56 to QSFP56 connection at 200Gbps. Its 1.5m (5ft) length and DAC construction are intended for NVIDIA/Mellanox equipment, with no separate transceiver-and-patch-cord assembly required.

OEM Part Number: MCP1650-V01AE30HT Part Number: MCP1650-V01AE30

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to NVIDIA/Mellanox MCP1650-V01AE30
• 200G connectivity at 200Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP56 to QSFP56
• Fixed length and part number: 1.5m (5ft), MCP1650-V01AE30
• Cable construction: Passive Twinax
• Conductor specification: 30AWG
• Maximum power consumption: 0.03W Per End
• Minimum bend radius: 39mm

The rated power consumption is 0.03W Per End. 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.

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include IEEE802.3cd, SFF-8436. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

A passive DAC has no separate optical conversion stage. Its low-power, low-latency operation is useful for short equipment links, but the assembly must remain within the length and signaling mode accepted by both hosts.

The additional half metre beyond a one-metre assembly gives MCP1650-V01AE30 useful routing flexibility when the ports are not directly aligned. It can accommodate a different rack unit or a short service loop, but excess cable should be dressed loosely rather than folded into a tight coil.

MCP1650-V01AE30 occupies the middle of this family between MCP1650-V001E30 at 1m (3ft) and MCP1650-V002E26 at 2m (7ft). It adds 0.5m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 0.5m. 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 30AWG conductors, PVC jacket, minimum bend radius 39mm. 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 HT cable carries the compatibility configuration associated with MCP1650-V01AE30, while its mechanical assembly remains the fixed 1.5m (5ft) 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.

Quote HT part number MCP1650-V01AE30 with the required quantity. The 1.5m (5ft) length is fixed for this part number; if a different length is needed, select its corresponding page and OEM reference from the length list above. Standard HT labels and project-specific packaging are available.

Every MCP1650-V01AE30 compatible assembly undergoes link testing, compatibility verification and visual inspection. The 1.5m (5ft) cable is coiled without exceeding its minimum bend radius, fitted with connector protection and packed in an anti-static bag or protective tray before cartoning. Project labels and packing lists are available for volume orders.

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.
