1.6T OSFP224 ACC Overview
The 1.6T OSFP224 ACC category contains one active copper cable for short-distance 1.6Tb/s interconnections. O1600-O1600-AC uses OSFP224 connectors at both ends and integrates eight 200Gb/s PAM4 electrical channels to deliver the full 1.6Tb/s bandwidth. Available in lengths from 1m to 2.5m, its low-component active copper architecture supports ultra-low-latency and low-power links with increased port bandwidth and connection density. The cable is designed for 1.6T interconnects in AI clusters, high-performance computing systems, cloud platforms, and data center environments.
FAQ
- What connector configuration does the O1600-O1600-AC use between two devices equipped with compatible 1.6T OSFP224 ports?
It uses one finned-top OSFP224 connector at each end, forming a straight-through 1.6T OSFP224-to-OSFP224 active copper link.
- How does the O1600-O1600-AC carry the full 1.6Tb/s bandwidth through its OSFP224 electrical interfaces?
Eight 200Gb/s PAM4 channels. Together, the eight high-speed electrical copper channels provide an aggregate data rate of 1.6Tb/s through each OSFP224 interface.
- Which cable lengths are available for the O1600-O1600-AC, and what connection range are they designed to cover?
From 1m to 2.5m. These lengths are designed for short-distance 1.6T connections between compatible OSFP224 ports in AI clusters, HPC systems, cloud platforms, and high-density data centers.
- Can the O1600-O1600-AC split one 1.6T OSFP224 port into multiple lower-speed cable branches?
No. The O1600-O1600-AC has one OSFP224 connector at each end and no branch connectors, so it provides a straight-through 1.6T-to-1.6T link rather than a breakout connection.
- How does the O1600-O1600-AC differ from a passive 1.6T direct-attach copper cable?
It is an active copper cable rather than a purely passive assembly. Its low-component active architecture supports the specified 1m–2.5m link while prioritizing ultra-low latency, low power, increased port bandwidth, and higher connection density.
- What host-port mechanical configuration is required for the finned-top connectors on the O1600-O1600-AC?
It requires OSFP224 host cages designed for modules with integrated finned heat sinks at both endpoints. Finned-top OSFP and OSFP-RHS flat-top implementations use different cage heights and positive-stop geometries, so the host-port style must match the cable connectors.
