Mellanox Technologies MFA1A00-E010 10M ACTIVE FIBER CABLE VPI UP TO 100GB/S QSFP

The Mellanox MFA1A00-E010 is a high-performance 10-meter active fiber optic cable designed for data center and enterprise networking applications. This QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable) cable delivers exceptional data transmission speeds up to 100Gb/s, making it ideal for high-bandwidth applications requiring ultra-fast connectivity between switches, servers, and storage systems.

Key features include active fiber optic technology that ensures signal integrity over longer distances compared to passive copper cables, while consuming less power and generating minimal heat. The VPI (Virtual Protocol Interconnect) compatibility provides flexible protocol support across multiple networking standards. The 10-meter length offers optimal reach for rack-to-rack connections in data centers without signal degradation.

Primary benefits include reduced latency, improved network performance, electromagnetic interference immunity, and lower total cost of ownership through reduced power consumption. The cable’s hot-pluggable design enables easy installation and maintenance without system downtime. Its compact form factor maximizes port density while the fiber optic construction ensures reliable performance in demanding environments.

The unique selling proposition lies in Mellanox’s proven networking expertise combined with enterprise-grade reliability, making this cable an essential component for organizations requiring maximum network throughput, scalability, and future-proof infrastructure investments.
