InfiniBand/fibre optic cable Nvidia MCP7Y50-N003 3 m OSFP 4xOSFP Black

The Nvidia MCP7Y50-N003 is a 3 m InfiniBand/fibre optic cable engineered for high-throughput, low-latency links in data center and high-performance computing installations. It uses OSFP and 4xOSFP male-to-male connectors to deliver multi-lane optical connectivity over a single cable, supporting dense server and switch interconnects while maintaining signal integrity and consistent performance across short to medium reach deployments.

Advantages

This cable provides reliable, high-speed optical transmission suitable for InfiniBand fabrics and compatible optical ports. The OSFP and 4xOSFP connector combination enables multi-lane aggregation for increased bandwidth while reducing cable clutter. Its 3 m length balances flexibility in rack-to-rack or intra-rack routing with minimal signal loss. The black jacket offers a standard, unobtrusive appearance and robust mechanical protection for regular handling in server rooms.

Suitable for

• High-performance computing clusters and MPI interconnects
• Data center switch-to-switch or switch-to-server optical links
• InfiniBand fabrics requiring OSFP/4xOSFP connectivity
• Short- to medium-reach optical interconnects in rack installations

Key specifications

• Cable type: InfiniBand / fibre optic
• Length: 3 m
• Connector types: OSFP to 4xOSFP, male-to-male
• Color: Black
• Intended use: Multi-lane optical data links for high-speed networks

How to use

Install the cable by aligning each OSFP connector with the corresponding port and inserting until the connector latch engages. Route the cable through the rack or cable management channels to avoid sharp bends; maintain the manufacturer-recommended minimum bend radius to preserve optical performance. For multi-lane configurations, ensure both ends are connected to compatible OSFP/4xOSFP ports configured for the intended InfiniBand or optical protocol. Verify link status via host or switch diagnostics after installation.

Recommendations

Handle the cable using the connector housings and avoid pulling on the optical fibers. Keep the cable away from sources of electromagnetic interference and excessive heat. For optimal long-term performance, inspect connectors for dust or contamination and clean with appropriate fibre-optic cleaning tools before connecting.
