Axiom 200G QSFP56 active optical cable splitting to two 100G QSFP56 ends 5m length

Axiom

Axiom MFS1S50-V005E-AX 200GBASE-AOC to 2 100GBASE-AOC QSFP56 Active Optical Cable 5m

SKU CH-672Y-G8YP2 MPN MFS1S50-V005E-AX

Splits a 200GBASE-AOC link into two 100GBASE-AOC QSFP56 connections over 5 m of fiber

  • 200 Gbps aggregate bandwidth splits into two 100 Gbps links
  • 5 m active optical cable reaches across racks without signal loss
  • QSFP56 connectors on both ends fit modern high-density ports
  • Fibre-optic construction eliminates electromagnetic interference in dense cabinets
  • Guaranteed OEM compatibility ensures plug-and-play deployment in Mellanox environments

Axiom 200G to Dual 100G QSFP56 Breakout Cable

This active optical cable splits a single 200GBASE port into two 100GBASE connections using QSFP56 interfaces. It is designed for data-centre operators who need to break out high-density switch ports into separate server links. The five-metre reach suits intra-rack and short cross-rack cabling. Mellanox compatibility is guaranteed by the manufacturer.

Capacity and Headroom for 200G and 100G Links

Each 100G lane delivers full line-rate throughput with the low latency and EMI immunity of fibre optic technology. The assembly handles aggregate 200G traffic without oversubscription, making it suitable for spine-to-leaf and storage-cluster interconnects. Beyond the rated 200G total bandwidth the cable cannot scale; longer reaches or higher speeds require different media.

Limited Lifetime Warranty

The limited lifetime warranty covers the cable against defects for the duration of its deployment. The 100% guaranteed compatibility statement means the module is coded to pass OEM qualification checks in Mellanox equipment without errors or alarms. No additional software licences or firmware bundles are included with the cable.

Questions about this item

Will the 200GBASE-AOC end connect to my existing 200G QSFP56 switch port?

Yes, the left connector is QSFP56 and rated for 200GBASE-AOC, so it plugs directly into a 200G QSFP56 port.

How can I confirm the cable is operating correctly after installation?

Check the link lights on both QSFP56 ports and verify a 200 Gb/s or 100 Gb/s per lane connection in your switch management interface.

What comes in the box and do I need to purchase any transceivers separately?

The box contains the 5 m active optical cable with integrated QSFP56 connectors on all three ends; no separate transceivers are required.
