NVIDIA/Mellanox MCP7H50-V02AR26 Compatible 200G QSFP56 4 x 50G PAM4 to 2 x 100G QSFP56 2 x 50G PAM4 Ethernet Passive Copper Breakout Cable, 2.5m (8ft)

With a fixed 2.5m (8ft) cable and QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56, the MCP7H50-V02AR26 compatible assembly simplifies 200G deployment. It is manufactured and tested by HT for NVIDIA/Mellanox equipment.

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to NVIDIA/Mellanox MCP7H50-V02AR26
• 200G connectivity at 200Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56
• Fixed length and part number: 2.5m (8ft), MCP7H50-V02AR26
• Cable construction: Passive Twinax
• Conductor specification: 26AWG
• Maximum power consumption: 0.1W (200G End) 0.1W (100G Per End)
• Minimum bend radius: 30mm

The rated power consumption is 0.1W (200G End) 0.1W (100G 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.

This assembly uses 26AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) 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 intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include IEEE 802.3cd, SFF-8665, QSFP56 MSA. 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.

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 2.5m (8ft) version is useful when a two-metre run would leave insufficient working slack. Before installation, check the complete horizontal and vertical path so that MCP7H50-V02AR26 reaches both ports without tension at either connector.

MCP7H50-V02AR26 occupies the middle of this family between MCP7H50-V002R26 at 2m (7ft) and MCP7H50-V003R26 at 3m (10ft). 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.

For this NVIDIA/Mellanox application, testing combines digital identification with actual traffic-link verification and electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Both ends are inspected for latch, boot and connector damage. If the project uses a specific hardware revision or a channelized port, send those details so that the intended configuration can be reviewed before shipment.

When ordering, specify MCP7H50-V02AR26, cable length 2.5m (8ft) 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.

Quality control includes connector appearance, cable identification and functional verification. Packing materials are selected to keep the connector housings and cable boots from taking impact during transport, and the coil is not compressed into an undersized bundle. Volume orders can include customer-specific labels and packing documentation.

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.
