1.6T OSFP1600 Active Copper Cable

Volex is a leading manufacturer and supplier of direct attach copper (DAC) cables.

The Volex 1.6T OSFP1600 active copper cable features 224Gbps PAM4 channels with 8 channels for transmission and 8 channels for reception at 1.6T operation. The cable assembly complies with IEEE 802.3df and 802.3dj 1600GBase-CR8 standards. The signal integrity, which experiences significant stress during high-speed data transmission, is enhanced by advanced linear equalization. As a result, it is possible to extend up to 2.5m compared to the passive version's 1m. The unique dielectric materials and cable structure provide the smallest cable size and the highest flexibility. Consequently, a highly flexible DAC cable has been achieved, reducing bend space by up to 30% compared to the passive version, making it ideal for deployment in high-density racks.
