NVIDIA/Mellanox MCP2M00-A005AM Compatible 25G SFP28 Ethernet Passive Copper Twinax Cable, 5m (16ft)

With a fixed 5m (16ft) cable and SFP28 to SFP28, the MCP2M00-A005AM compatible assembly simplifies 25G deployment. It is manufactured and tested by HT for NVIDIA/Mellanox equipment.

OEM Part Number: MCP2M00-A005AMHT Part Number: MCP2M00-A005AM

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to NVIDIA/Mellanox MCP2M00-A005AM
• 25G connectivity at 25Gbps
• Interface configuration: SFP28 to SFP28
• Fixed length and part number: 5m (16ft), MCP2M00-A005AM
• Conductor specification: 26AWG
• Minimum bend radius: 28mm

This assembly uses 26AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 28mm. 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 5m (16ft) length gives MCP2M00-A005AM more freedom for adjacent-rack and row-end deployments. Longer copper runs need particular attention to routing weight and bend control; the DAC specification and host support must still match the intended link.

MCP2M00-A005AM is the longest of 7 verified length options in this family. Compared with MCP2M00-A003 at 3m (10ft), it provides 2m of additional reach for a longer vertical drop, a wider rack or an adjacent-cabinet route. Confirm that the complete path requires this length, because unused slack still needs supported, bend-safe storage.

The intended application is 25G Ethernet, Data Center, 5G Wireless. Listed interface and protocol references include IEEE 802.3, SFP28 MSA, SFF-8402, Infiniband, EIA 364-1000. 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.

Our compatibility setup for NVIDIA/Mellanox MCP2M00-A005AM 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.

When ordering, specify MCP2M00-A005AM, cable length 5m (16ft) 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.

Production inspection covers both physical condition and a live link check. Connector ends receive individual protection, and the completed assembly is packed without tight ties or sharp bends. For multi-length projects, cartons can be separated and labelled by OEM part number to simplify installation on site.

Available stock is usually packed and handed to the carrier within one to three working days. Delivery can be arranged by international express, air cargo or sea freight, with tracking details supplied after dispatch. Freight-collect shipments and delivery to a customer warehouse or forwarder can also be coordinated.
