Specifications

Signal and Lane Configuration

The listed modulation format is 8x 200G-PAM4 to 8x 200G-PAM4. Both host interfaces must be configured for the same aggregate rate and lane arrangement. A connector that fits mechanically does not by itself guarantee that the remote port supports this encoding or breakout mode.

Length Selection and Installation Planning

OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-1.6T-ACC-2M7FT provides 2m (7ft) for connections between separated rack units or nearby equipment positions. Plan the route around cable managers and power cords, keeping the assembly free from connector strain while avoiding a large obstruction in the airflow path.

Position Within the Length Range

OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-1.6T-ACC-2M7FT is the longest of 3 verified length options in this family. Compared with OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-1.6T-ACC-1.5M5FT at 1.5m (5ft), it provides 0.5m of additional reach for a longer vertical drop, a wider rack or an adjacent-cabinet route. Confirm that the complete path requires this length, because unused slack still needs supported, bend-safe storage.

Interoperability and Configuration Checks

Check three layers before deployment: the host must accept the cable identification, the port must support the stated aggregate rate, and the lane configuration must match the attached interfaces. On breakout hardware, also confirm channelization and the mapping of every branch. These checks are particularly important when similar-looking ports operate at different speeds or under different firmware settings. For this assembly, the listed conductor specification is 26AWG; the minimum bend radius is 50mm; the stated power consumption is 2W Per End; the jacket material is PET.

Power and Thermal Planning

The rated power consumption is 2W Per End. Include this load in the host-port power and thermal budget, especially in densely populated switches. Maintain front-panel clearance and do not bundle the cable so tightly that it obstructs airflow around the connectors.

Cable Construction and Routing

This assembly uses 26AWG conductors, PET jacket, minimum bend radius 50mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.

Network and Protocol Considerations

The intended application is 1.6T Ethernet. Listed interface and protocol references include OSFP Rev 5.2, IEEE 802.3df, IEEE 802.3dj, CMIS 5.0. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

Ordering Information

Specify the OEM part number and fixed length, then provide the intended host configuration if the link uses channelized or breakout ports. Separate part numbers should be used for separate lengths. This gives the compatibility review enough information to check both the physical assembly and the intended operating mode. Keep OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-1.6T-ACC-2M7FT associated with 2m (7ft) throughout the order and receiving record.

Generic Compatibility and Factory Testing

The verification process combines digital identification with a live link test and diagnostic observation. Host model, hardware revision and software release are useful inputs because qualification behavior can change between platform generations; those details allow platform-specific requirements to be reviewed before the cable is packed. Where supported by the host, link stability and diagnostic indications are reviewed together with the established link.

Shipping and Lead Time

Available stock is generally dispatched within one to three working days after order confirmation, with production lead times advised for larger quantities. Worldwide courier services are available, with air or sea freight for consolidated shipments; freight-collect delivery and coordination with a customer’s logistics provider can be arranged.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Functional inspection covers identification, link establishment and the condition of both connector assemblies. The cable is then protected against dust and connector damage and packed without sharp bends. Labels can include the customer reference and host-platform note when requested for a controlled deployment. Standard protective packing is used by default, with project documentation arranged when requested.
