400G OSFP-RHS Active Optical Cable

MSA Compatible 400G to 400G AOC Cable(1-50m, OSFP112-RHS to OSFP112-RHS, OM3/OM4)

The 400G OSFP-RHS AOC cable connects in 4×106.25Gbps Gigabit Ethernet lines using OM3 or OM4 cables. Each OSFP-RHS port has four 106.25Gbps transmit and receive channels, each capable of 106.25Gb/s PAM4 operation for an aggregate data rate of 425Gb/s.
The 400G active optical cable conforms to OSFP-RHS MSA standards. It is compliant with IEEE 802.3db specifications. The cable features a 4-channel 850nm VCSEL array in addition to a 4-channel PIN photo detector array. The AOC cable enables digital diagnostics functions using the I2C management interface that CMIS V4.0 specifies. The maximum data transmission distance is 30m on OM3 and 50m on OM4 with FEC. The AOC cable is ideal for 5G network backbone connectivity, cloud service providers, and data centers.
