NVIDIA MFP7E10-N030 Multimode Optical Fiber Cable
The NVIDIA MFP7E10-N030 is a high-performance passive fiber cable designed for 400G/NDR InfiniBand and Ethernet interconnects. Featuring MPO-12/APC connectors and a Type-B crossover design, this optical fiber cable ensures reliable, low-loss connectivity between switches, adapters, and DPUs in high-density data centers.
MFP7E10-N030 Key Features:
- MPO-12/APC to MPO-12/APC, Female-to-Female, 8-fiber multimode
- Type-B crossover topology for direct transceiver alignment
- Low insertion loss: ≤0.35 + 0.0004×L dB
- LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket for enhanced safety
- Supports InfiniBand NDR, Ethernet, and NVLink protocols
MFP7E10-N030 Technology & Standards
This passive fiber cable complies with IEC 61754-7 and ANSI/TIA/EIA 604-5-199 standards. It uses Angled Physical Contact (APC) polish to minimize back reflection and ensure signal integrity. The cable is designed for use with NVIDIA Mellanox® transceivers and supports multimode OM4 fibers for reaches up to 50 meters.
Working Principle
The MFP7E10-Nxxx cable uses a Type-B crossover scheme where transmit lanes from one end connect to receive lanes on the opposite end. Specifically, fiber 1 from MPO1 connects to fiber 12 on MPO2, ensuring proper optical lane alignment between twin-port OSFP transceivers and compatible devices.
Applications
- Data center spine-leaf architectures
- High-performance computing (HPC) clusters
- AI and machine learning infrastructure
- Storage area networks (SAN) and NVMe over Fabrics (NVMe-oF)
- Cloud and enterprise data centers

FAQ
Q: Is this cable compatible with MPO-12/UPC connectors?
A: No. MPO-12/APC and MPO-12/UPC are not compatible due to different polish angles.
Q: What is the maximum supported distance?
A: Up to 50 meters with multimode OM4 fiber.
Q: Can I use this cable for switch-to-adapter connections?
A: Yes, it is designed for both switch-to-switch and switch-to-adapter links.
MFP7E10-N030 Precautions
- Always use optical cleaning tools before connection.
- Do not mix fiber types within the same link.
- Avoid bending below 30 mm radius.
- Store and operate within 0°C to 70°C temperature range.
