Specifications

Signal and Lane Configuration

The listed modulation format is 8x100G-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.

Position Within the Length Range

OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-ACC-5M16FT is the longest of 5 verified length options in this family. Compared with OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-ACC-4M13FT at 4m (13ft), it provides 1m 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.

High-Density Rack Integration

In a densely populated rack, connector access and airflow are part of the link design. Choose the shortest length that follows the managed path comfortably, avoid tight bundles around the connector housings and preserve room for latch operation. Where power consumption is listed, include every populated interface in the host thermal budget rather than assessing a single cable in isolation. For this assembly, the listed conductor specification is 26AWG; the minimum bend radius is 59.5mm; the stated power consumption is 1.3W Per End; the jacket material is PET.

Power and Thermal Planning

The rated power consumption is 1.3W 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 59.5mm. 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 800G Ethernet. Listed interface and protocol references include CMIS 5.0, IEEE 802.3ck, OSFP Rev5.0. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

Length Selection and Installation Planning

The 5m (16ft) length gives OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-ACC-5M16FT more freedom for adjacent-rack and row-end deployments. Longer copper runs need particular attention to routing weight and bend control; the ACC specification and host support must still match the intended link.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Each assembly receives a visual connector inspection and functional link check before it is coiled and protected. Packaging is selected to avoid compressing the cable into a tight bundle, and optional rack-based labels help maintain an orderly installation when many identical interfaces are populated together. Neutral packaging and customer-specific packing documentation are available on request.

Ordering Information

Provide the exact part number, length, quantity and target interface density. For multi-rack projects, list each length separately and identify any preferred carton grouping. Host model and software information can be included for a compatibility review before production or dispatch. This page’s fixed configuration is 5m (16ft); another length must be quoted under its corresponding part number.

Generic Compatibility and Factory Testing

The assembly is evaluated for host recognition and stable link operation, with diagnostics checked where the interface provides them. This approach verifies more than electrical or optical continuity. Exact platform and firmware information remains valuable in high-density deployments because port mode and qualification policy can differ within the same connector family. The check includes link stability and diagnostic indications, followed by a final inspection of both ends.
