The 800GBASE-DR8 OSFP Optical Transceiver Module is designed for 800GBASE Ethernet throughput up to 500m over OS2 single-mode fiber (SMF) using a wavelength of 1310nm via MPO-16 connectors. This transceiver is compliant with lEEE P802.3ck, IEEE 802.3cu, OSFP MSA. The built-in digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM) allows access to real-time operating parameters.
The OSFP finned-top transceiver is used in Ethernet air-cooled switches. Featured with low latency, low power, and reliability, it can link upward in spine-leaf architectures for switch-to-switch applications, downward for top-of-rack switch links to Ethernet network adapters, and/or to BlueField-3 DPUs in compute servers and storage subsystems. It is the ideal solution for HPC computing, AI, and cloud data centers.
Note: "Finned-top" transceivers are now called "Integrated HeatSink" (IHS) as the cooling fins are integrated into the OSFP connector metal top. Commonly used in air-cooled switches. "Flat-top" transceivers are now called "Riding Heat Sink" (RHS) as the cooling fins ride on top of the network card or systems internal cages. This is used for both air-cooled and liquid-cooled applications for DGX, ConnectX-7, and BlueField-3 DPUS.
