Mellanox Technologies MMA1B00-C100D 100GbE QSFP28 MPO transceiver

SKU CH-68WB-2FNTB

A 100GbE QSFP28 transceiver with MPO connector operating at 850nm over multi-mode fibre for 100Gb/s Ethernet links

  • 100GbE throughput with four 25.78125 GBd channels
  • 850nm wavelength over multi-mode ribbon fibre via MPO
  • SFF-8665 compliant QSFP28 form factor for host compatibility
  • Digital diagnostics monitor temperature voltage laser bias and optical power
  • Rigorous production testing for reliable out-of-the-box installation

100GbE QSFP28 MPO transceiver

The Mellanox MMA1B00-C100D is a pluggable optical transceiver designed for 100 Gigabit Ethernet links. It targets data-centre operators and network engineers who need high-density connectivity over parallel multi-mode fibre. The module uses an MPO connector and integrates Mellanox IC technology for low-power operation.

Multi-mode 850nm wavelength

The single specification that determines compatibility is the 850nm nominal wavelength over parallel multi-mode ribbon fibre. This transceiver only works with matching multi-mode infrastructure and MPO cabling; it will not operate over single-mode fibre or standard LC duplex patch cords. Buyers needing single-mode reach or a different connector type must select a different module.

Low power with DDM monitoring

The module delivers high performance at low power and includes Digital Diagnostic Monitoring for temperature, supply voltage, laser bias current, and both transmitted and received optical power with warning and alarm thresholds. Rigorous production testing ensures reliable installation and durability in normal rack environments.

Questions about this item

What does the 100 Gb/s Ethernet rating mean once the transceiver is installed in a switch or NIC?

The module delivers four parallel 25.78125 GBd channels over multi-mode fiber, aggregating to 100 Gb/s line rate when connected to a compatible QSFP28 port.

Which interface standard governs the QSFP28 electrical connector and what does it limit in practice?

The CAUI-4 electrical interface defined by SFF-8665 caps each lane at 25.78125 GBd, so total throughput cannot exceed 100 Gb/s.

What physical connector and fiber type are required to plug this transceiver into a link?

An MPO connector on a parallel multi-mode ribbon fiber cable is needed for the optical interface.
