Superior Signal Integrity

Integrated retiming and signal conditioning ensure optimal performance over the entire 30-meter distance, outperforming passive copper solutions that suffer from signal degradation at similar lengths.

Reduced Power Consumption

At just 2.2W per end, this active optical cable consumes significantly less power than alternative active cable technologies, contributing to lower operational costs in large-scale deployments.

What is the difference between this AOC and passive DAC cables?

Active Optical Cables like the MFA1A00-C030 provide significantly longer reach (up to 100m vs. typically 5-7m for passive DAC), better signal integrity over distance, lighter weight, and superior flexibility for cable management in dense environments.

Is this cable compatible with both Ethernet and InfiniBand systems?

Yes, the MFA1A00 series supports both 100GbE Ethernet and InfiniBand EDR applications. Specific part numbers are available optimized for each protocol, with the -CXXX series designated for Ethernet deployments.

What diagnostic information is available through the DDM interface?

The Digital Diagnostic Monitoring provides real-time data on temperature, supply voltage, laser bias current, transmitted optical power, and received optical power, with configurable warning and alarm thresholds for proactive maintenance.
