The GIGALIGHT 800G OSFP AOC active optical cable is used for short distance interconnections between equipment within data centers and are compliant with the IEEE 802. The series uses 8 parallel pairs of multimode fiber for transmission over distances up to 30m (OM3) or 50m. The 800G Active Optical Cable (AOC) series redefines data-center interconnect performance by combining the simplicity of a pluggable copper cable with the reach and signal integrity of embedded optics. Engineered in the compact QSFP112 form factor, each AOC delivers an aggregate 800 Gb/s bandwidth. Each AOC has 8 duplex channels with 850Gbit/s aggregate bandwidth. Each channel operates with PAM4 modulati on scheme at 53. 125G baud rate, and up to 60m using OM3 fiber or 100m using OM4 fiber. The host can select Applications by programming the AppSel value in Staged Set 0. AppSel=1 is the. 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.
