Product Features
Technical Overview
This cable utilizes twinaxial construction with active electronics to maintain signal quality across its 4-meter span. The OSFP112 to 2xOSFP112-RHS configuration provides a direct attach solution for connecting single-port devices to dual-port equipment or for breakout applications.
The cable is compatible with 800GBase-CU and Infiniband standards, ensuring interoperability with Mellanox and other compatible networking hardware. Its copper core delivers low-latency performance while the active components compensate for signal loss, making it effective for distances up to 10 meters where high-speed data transfer is required.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Connector Type on First End, Connector Gender on First End, Product Material, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages

- Supports 800GBase-CU standard
- Infiniband compatible
- Active signal enhancement
Reliable Connectivity
Features robust OSFP male connectors that provide secure connections in data center environments.
- 1 x OSFP male on End A
- 2 x OSFP male on End B
- Copper construction for durability
Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is specifically designed for environments where traditional passive cables would experience signal degradation over 4-meter distances. The active twinaxial design makes it suitable for connecting equipment across adjacent racks or within larger cabinet installations.
Common applications include linking top-of-rack switches to servers, connecting storage arrays to network fabric, and establishing high-speed links between networking devices in enterprise and cloud data centers. The TAA compliance ensures it meets government procurement requirements for sensitive deployments.
Data Center Interconnects
Ideal for connecting switches, routers, and servers in high-density rack environments where 800G connectivity is required.
High-Performance Computing
Supports cluster and storage networks that demand maximum throughput for scientific computing, AI workloads, and big data processing.
Physical Profile
The cable features a compact and flexible design with a weight of approximately 8 ounces (226.80 grams), making it easy to route through cable management systems without excessive bulk. The copper construction provides durability while maintaining flexibility for installation in confined spaces.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 8 oz (226.80 g). This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the data transfer rate of this cable?
This cable supports data transfer rates of 800 Gbit/s (800 gigabits per second). This high-speed capability makes it suitable for bandwidth-intensive applications in data centers, high-performance computing environments, and enterprise networks where maximum throughput is required.
What type of connectors does this cable have?
The cable features OSFP (Octal Small Form-factor Pluggable) male connectors. End A has 1 x OSFP Network - Male connector, while End B has 2 x OSFP Network - Male connectors. This configuration supports direct attach connections between compatible networking equipment.
What does 'active twinaxial' mean for this cable?
Active twinaxial refers to a cable design that incorporates electronic components to boost and maintain signal integrity. Unlike passive cables that rely solely on physical properties, this active design ensures reliable 800 Gbit/s performance across the 4-meter length by compensating for signal attenuation that typically occurs over distance.
Is this cable TAA compliant?
Yes, this cable is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant. This means it meets the requirements for government procurement and can be used in contracts that mandate TAA-compliant products. The cable is manufactured in the United States and/or United Kingdom, which are TAA-designated countries.
What is the warranty for this network cable?
This cable comes with a lifetime limited warranty. This warranty coverage provides long-term assurance of product quality and reliability for enterprise and data center deployments where continuous operation is essential.
What networking standards is this cable compatible with?
This cable is compatible with 800GBase-CU and Infiniband standards. This ensures interoperability with Mellanox and other compatible networking equipment that supports these high-speed protocols for data center and high-performance computing applications.
