OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-AEC-5M16FT 800G OSFP 8 x 100G PAM4 IHS/Finned Top Active Electrical Cable, 5m (16ft)

The HT-manufactured OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-AEC-5M16FT compatible cable provides 800G connectivity for multi-vendor equipment. This 5m (16ft) version is an active electrical link with signal recovery designed for the stated data rate, with an exact part number and length that can be matched directly to the equipment requirement.

OEM Part Number: OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-AEC-5M16FTHT Part Number: OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-AEC-5M16FT

The listed modulation format is 8x100G-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.

The 5m (16ft) length gives OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-AEC-5M16FT more freedom for adjacent-rack and row-end deployments. Longer copper runs need particular attention to routing weight and bend control; the AEC specification and host support must still match the intended link.

OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-AEC-5M16FT is the longest of 5 verified length options in this family. Compared with OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-AEC-4M13FT at 4m (13ft), it provides 1m 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 ≤12W. 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 28AWG conductors, PET jacket, minimum bend radius 53mm. 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 OSFP MSA, IEEE 802.3ck, CMIS 5.0. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

Each OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-AEC-5M16FT compatible cable is powered up on a suitable test interface rather than checked only for continuity. We confirm the expected identification and observe electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Because operating systems can apply different qualification rules by hardware revision, the intended Generic platform should be included with the order.

Use part number OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-AEC-5M16FT for the 5m (16ft) assembly. For mixed-length projects, list each required part number and quantity separately so that every cable can be tested and packed according to its intended installation.

HT inspects and tests every completed cable before it enters finished stock. Protective caps or covers are fitted where applicable, followed by anti-static or tray packaging and an outer carton. Custom labels can cross-reference the customer part number, OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-AEC-5M16FT and the 5m (16ft) length for easier inventory control.

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.
