NVIDIA/Mellanox MFA2P10-A003 Compatible 25G SFP28 Ethernet Active Optical Cable, 3m (10ft)

With a fixed 3m (10ft) cable and SFP28 to SFP28, the MFA2P10-A003 compatible assembly simplifies 25G deployment. It is manufactured and tested by HT for NVIDIA/Mellanox equipment.

OEM Part Number: MFA2P10-A003HT Part Number: MFA2P10-A003

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to NVIDIA/Mellanox MFA2P10-A003
• 25G connectivity at 25Gbps
• Interface configuration: SFP28 to SFP28
• Fixed length and part number: 3m (10ft), MFA2P10-A003
• 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.

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.

At 3m (10ft), this assembly can bridge non-aligned ports or adjacent racks while remaining a single direct-attach link. Support longer horizontal runs with suitable cable management and preserve space for cooling and future maintenance.

MFA2P10-A003 occupies the middle of this family between MFA2P10-A002 at 2m (7ft) and MFA2P10-A004 at 4m (13ft). It adds 1m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 1m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

The HT cable carries the compatibility configuration associated with MFA2P10-A003, while its mechanical assembly remains the fixed 3m (10ft) 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 MFA2P10-A003 with the required quantity. The 3m (10ft) 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.

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.

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.
