Identity

The NVIDIA Mellanox® MCP7H00-G02A is a QSFP28 100GbE 2.5m Passive Copper DAC Cable. This is a splitter / breakout cable assembly. Refurbished Grade A — bench-tested in both link and signal-integrity checks by T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS.

What This Is NOT

  • NOT an AOC. Passive copper cable with limited reach (typically ≤7m for high-speed gens).
  • NOT a transceiver. Fixed-length cable assembly; ends are not field-replaceable.
  • NOT a 1-to-1 cable. This is a splitter/breakout — both endpoints on the split side must accept the lower-speed downstream connector.
  • NOT bundled with adapters or transceivers — sold standalone.

Capabilities & Features

  • Passive copper twin-axial pairs — no power required, lowest latency.
  • DDM (Digital Diagnostic Monitoring) — temperature, voltage, optical power readable via I²C.
  • EEPROM on each end with product identification and operating data.
  • Hot-pluggable into any matching QSFP/SFP cage.

Compatibility & Constraints

  • Primary connector: QSFP28 (compliant with MSA cage spec).
  • Reach: 2.5m fixed length.
  • Speed: 100GbE (split to 2x 50GbE).
  • Compatible adapters: ConnectX-4 / ConnectX-5 / ConnectX-6.
  • Compatible switches: NVIDIA Spectrum / Spectrum-2 / Switch-IB 2.
  • Power: drawn from host port (no external supply required).

Deployment & Use Cases

  • Top-of-Rack to server interconnect.
  • HPC compute node fabric.
  • AI training cluster east-west bandwidth.
  • Fan-out: one switch port serves two lower-speed endpoints.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q. What is the MCP7H00-G02A?
The MCP7H00-G02A is a 2.5m passive copper splitter DAC: one QSFP28 head at 100GbE breaks out into two legs at 50GbE each.

Q. Does the switch need special configuration?
Yes. The head port must be configured for breakout mode.

Q. Will T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS confirm the configuration of MCP7H00-G02A before shipping?
Yes. T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS (tes-itsolutions.com) bench-tests each unit where test topology is available, before dispatch from EU stock.

Why T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS

Every unit is bench-tested by T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS: link establishment, port-by-port traffic validation, and full cosmetic inspection. Professional anti-static packaging, global B2B shipping from EU stock, and technical consultation for HPC / AI cluster deployments.

Testing & Condition Verification

Every unit is bench-tested by T.E.S IT-SOLUTIONS before dispatch: per-port link verification, power supply and fan diagnostics, firmware confirmation and full cosmetic inspection. Airflow direction is checked and recorded so the unit matches your rack's hot/cold aisle layout. Warranty coverage is included on every unit.

Shipping, Handling & Technical Support

1-3 business day handling from EU stock, professional anti-static packaging and tracked global B2B shipping. Technical consultation on fabric design, cabling and transceiver selection is available from our NVIDIA Mellanox networking team at tes-itsolutions.com.
