The 800G OSFP Active Electrical Cable is copper cable with retimer chip at both ends for complete signal integrity and is designed for use in 800G Ethernet. It provides a OSFP copper direct-attach solution. This cable is compliant with OSFP MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) and IEEE 802.3ck standards. With these features, this easy to install, high speed, cost-effective direct attach copper twinax cable is suitable for short-distance connectivity within a rack or between adjacent racks in data centers.
Note: "Finned top" transceivers are now called "Integrated Heat Sink" (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 system's internal cages. This is used for both air-cooled and liquid-cooled applications for DGX, ConnectX-7, and BlueField-3 DPUS.
