The listed modulation format is PAM4. Both host interfaces must be configured for the same aggregate rate and lane arrangement. A connector that fits mechanically does not by itself guarantee that the remote port supports this encoding or breakout mode.

MFS1S50-V030E is the longest of 8 verified length options in this family. Compared with MFS1S50-V020E at 20m (66ft), it provides 10m 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 rated power consumption is 4.5W (200G End) 1.25W (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 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 intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include IEEE 802.3, QSFP56 MSA, SFF-8024, SFF-8679, SFF-8665, and SFF-8636. 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 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.

The extended 30m (98ft) reach supports connections across adjacent racks or between separated equipment rows. Secure the cable along its route, protect both ends from pull loads and preserve ventilation. The integrated AOC construction avoids a chain of separate modules and patch leads.

Our compatibility setup for NVIDIA/Mellanox MFS1S50-V030E is checked together with the physical 30m (98ft) assembly. Factory verification covers connector condition, host identification, error-free link establishment and optical link operation, receive activity and diagnostic readouts. Providing the exact host model and firmware release helps us identify platform-specific requirements before production.

This product is ordered as MFS1S50-V030E in 30m (98ft). 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.

Every MFS1S50-V030E compatible assembly undergoes link testing, compatibility verification and visual inspection. The 30m (98ft) 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.

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.
