NVIDIA/Mellanox OSFP-800G-2OFLAE Compatible 800G OSFP 8 x 100G PAM4 IHS/Finned Top to 2 x 400G OSFP 4 x 100G PAM4 RHS/Flat Top InfiniBand NDR Active Electrical Copper Breakout Cable

The OSFP-800G-2OFLAE compatible series is designed for NVIDIA/Mellanox hosts requiring a 800G AEC connection. Its 800G OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 2x 400G OSFP (RHS/Flat Top) arrangement is supplied as an active electrical assembly intended for hosts supporting the stated retimed interface. Use the specifications to assess the physical assembly, then follow the exact length and part-number links when preparing a bill of materials or requesting a compatibility check.

Applications and Deployment
Active electrical cables use signal recovery or retiming to support demanding high-speed electrical links. Deployment should begin with host support for the exact AEC configuration, followed by checks of per-end power, cooling and breakout operation. The two ends and cable are engineered and tested as one assembly. For this series, the listed interface is 800G OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 2x 400G OSFP (RHS/Flat Top) and the aggregate rate is 800G. The stated application is 800G/400G InfiniBand.
Cable Construction and Routing
For this assembly, the conductor specification is 32AWG; the jacket material is PET; the minimum bend radius is 26.5mm; the operating temperature is 0 to 70°C (32 to 158°F); the power consumption is 12W (800G End)10W (400G Per End). These parameters belong in the installation review rather than being treated as catalogue trivia. Route the cable through its intended managers without tension, avoid pressure close to the connector boots and leave enough space to operate the latches. Any service loop must respect the stated bend limit.
Procurement and Port-Mapping Review
A useful purchase order should identify the host platform, the expected OEM code and the exact cable length as separate pieces of information. This prevents a physically similar assembly from being substituted when the port identification or reach is different. For mixed-length installations, prepare one order line per part number and reconcile each delivered cable with its intended pair of ports. For this series, keep the interface rate, AEC construction and length-specific OEM reference together throughout that review.
NVIDIA/Mellanox Compatibility and Factory Testing
Our procurement-oriented compatibility check begins with the OEM reference and ends with a live host link. We record the physical length separately from the identification configuration, so the cable supplied for this page remains the stated version rather than a generic length substitute. Series-level inspection is followed by the exact length and OEM configuration selected for dispatch. Functional verification includes link establishment and diagnostic indications where the host exposes them.
Ordering Information
For a clear bill of materials, quote the OEM reference, HT part number, length and quantity on the same line. Add the switch or server model and software release when a pre-order review is required; project labels can repeat those details for receiving and installation teams. For this series, follow the corresponding length link, quote that exact OEM part number and keep different lengths on separate order lines. HT part number OSFP-800G-2OFLAE identifies the product family; the linked page provides the final length-specific identity.
Quality Assurance and Packaging
Before packing, the assembly is checked for connector condition, identification and link operation. Cables for multi-line orders can be labelled and grouped by part number, making it easier to match each length to the procurement record without opening every protective bag. Both connector ends are inspected as part of the complete assembly, and protective packing is selected to avoid tight bends during transport and storage.
Shipping and Lead Time
Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days, with production lead times confirmed for larger quantities. International courier, air freight and sea freight are available; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this an original NVIDIA/Mellanox cable?
No. It is an HT-manufactured compatible cable for equipment that specifies OSFP-800G-2OFLAE, not an original NVIDIA/Mellanox-branded product.
Are different lengths and OEM part numbers separate products?
Yes. Where a length has its own OEM reference, follow the corresponding link above and order that exact part number on its own line. Do not substitute another length only because the connector arrangement is the same.
Does this AEC cable require separate modules at each end?
No. The connector ends and cable form one complete direct-attach assembly. The ends are not detachable standalone transceivers, and the complete product is tested together.
What information helps confirm compatibility?
Provide the equipment manufacturer and model, port type, hardware revision and software release, together with the required OEM reference, length and quantity. Breakout projects should also identify the intended lane configuration.
