The OSFP SR8 is a short-range transceiver for use over parallel multimode fiber. Utilizing 8 optical pairs of 850nm, each optical pair operates at 100Gb/s PAM4, resulting in a total of 16 fibers (8x Tx and 8x Rx) between a single MTP/MPO-16 APC or dual MTP/MPO-12 APC multimode. OSFP (Octal Small Form-factor Pluggable) has become a frontrunner in the latest 400/800G capability with options to sustain this high-speed requirement as well as features for connecting to lower existing speeds and network topologies. OSFP offers a means to increase bandwidth with 400G, 800G, and. OSFP-XD MSA Rev 1. and a disclaimer is added to the Other Documents section. 22:. The Cisco ® OSFP 800G transceiver modules provide 800 Gigabit Ethernet (GE), 2x 400GE, 4x 200GE, and 8x 100GE connectivity options, complying with the Octal Small Form Factor Pluggable (OSFP) MSA for pluggable transceivers. It is used to link the Quantum-X800 QM3x00 switches using Twin-port OSFP 2x800Gb/s transceivers to the dual 800Gb/s ConnectX-8 mezzanine card in liquid cooled system and ConnectX-8 PCIE. The 800GBASE-SR8 OSFP Optical Transceiver Module is designed for 800GBASE Ethernet and 800Gb/s 2xNDR InfiniBand systems throughput up to 100m over OM4 multimode fiber (MMF) using a wavelength of 850nm via a MTP/MPO-16 connector.
