NADDOD's InfiniBand HDR 200G 2xQSFP56 to 2xQSFP56 active optical splitter cable (AOC) Compatible Mellanox® MFS1S90-HxxxE is a QSFP56 VCSEL-based (Vertical Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser), designed for use in 200Gb/s InfiniBand HDR (High Data Rate) systems. It provides cross-connectivity between a 200G Top of Rack (ToR) switch port configured as 2x100G ports and two 200G spine switch ports also configured as 2x100G ports. This offers a substantial CAPEX saving by reducing the required number of spine ports and cables. For data centers with more than 1600 servers, it will also save the third-layer switches.
