Nvidia MCP4Y10-N00A InfiniBand fibre optic cable 0.5 m OSFP Black

The Nvidia MCP4Y10-N00A InfiniBand fibre optic cable 0.5 m OSFP Black is a short-range optical link designed for high-throughput, low-latency interconnects in data center and high-performance computing environments. With OSFP connectors on both ends and a half-metre length, this cable provides a compact, managed connection between network switches, adapters, and storage nodes where space and signal integrity are critical.

Advantages

The cable offers high signal fidelity and consistent performance for InfiniBand networks thanks to precision-terminated fibre and industry-standard OSFP interfaces. Its short 0.5 m length reduces latency and crosstalk in dense rack deployments while the durable jacket and strain-relief features improve mechanical reliability during installation and maintenance. The cable is engineered for stable optical transmission, making it suitable for sustained, high-bandwidth workloads.

Suitable for

• Server-to-switch and switch-to-switch connections inside racks
• High-performance computing clusters and storage interconnects
• Low-latency, short-reach optical links in data centers
• Environments where compact cabling and reliable optical performance are required

Key specifications

• Interface type: OSFP connectors on both ends
• Cable type: Optical fibre
• Length: 0.5 m
• Color: Black
• Optimized for high-bandwidth, low-latency InfiniBand links
• Construction: Durable outer jacket with strain relief

How to use

Connect one OSFP connector to the OSFP port on the network adapter or switch and the other end to the corresponding OSFP port on the target device. Ensure connectors are clean before insertion to maintain optical performance. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it with appropriate cable management to prevent strain on the connectors. For best results, verify link status and perform standard network tests after installation.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, store and handle the fibre cable in a clean environment, avoid exceeding the minimum bend radius, and inspect connectors for contamination prior to mating. Use appropriate ESD precautions and follow vendor guidelines for optical transceivers and port configurations to ensure compatibility and optimal performance.
