Detailed Product Description
NVIDIA MFP7E10-N050 50m MPO12/APC OM4 Fiber Cable
Maximum Reach for 800G InfiniBand and Ethernet Applications
Product Overview
The NVIDIA MFP7E10-N050 is a passive MPO-12/APC-to-MPO-12/APC multimode fiber cable engineered for short-reach interconnects in high-performance data centers. This 50-meter variant represents the maximum supported distance for multimode fiber in 800G InfiniBand NDR and Ethernet applications.
Using eight active fibers in a Type-B crossover topology with OM4 fiber, this cable achieves full reach while maintaining signal integrity. With angled physical contact (APC) 8-degree polish, back reflections are minimized to ≥35dB return loss, critical for PAM4 modulation at 800Gb/s.
Key Specifications
  • Part Number: MFP7E10-N050 (50m) - maximum multimode reach
  • Fiber Type: Multimode 50/125µm OM4 (high bandwidth, long reach)
  • Connector: MPO-12/APC female, green housing, 8° angled polish
  • Insertion Loss: ≤0.37 dB (0.35 + 0.0004 × 50)
  • Return Loss: ≥35 dB
  • Minimum Bend Radius: 30 mm (dynamic / static)
  • Maximum Reach: 50m (with two patch panels and 4 optical junctions)
  • Jacket Color: Aqua (standard multimode identification)
Technology & Signal Integrity
Designed for 800G DR8 / 400G DR4 architectures, each cable contains 8 multimode fibers arranged in a crossed pinout. The 8-degree APC interface reduces optical return loss to >35dB, critical for high baud rate transceivers. The passive design consumes zero power and introduces no latency, making it ideal for switch-to-switch or switch-to-DPU links in NDR InfiniBand fabrics.
OM4 fiber (effective modal bandwidth ≥4700 MHz*km) provides the necessary bandwidth to support 50G PAM4 per lane over 50 meters while maintaining low bit error rates.
Typical Deployments
  • Linking twin-port OSFP 800Gb/s switches to ConnectX-7 network adapters across 50-meter spans between rows
  • Connecting NVIDIA BlueField-3 DPUs (QSFP112 or OSFP) to top-of-rack switches at maximum multimode distance
  • Spine-leaf interconnects in storage servers requiring full 50m OM4 reach across data center rows
  • Multimode backbone connecting switches across multiple racks or between rows in large data centers
Compatibility
The MFP7E10-N050 works with any transceiver or system that accepts MPO-12/APC female connectors and expects Type-B pinout. Verified compatibility includes:
  • NVIDIA MMA4Z00-NS (twin-port OSFP DR8, 800G) - up to 50m with OM4
  • NVIDIA MMA4Z00-NS400 (single-port OSFP 400G) - up to 50m with OM4
  • NVIDIA MMA1Z00-NS400 (QSFP112 400G) - up to 50m with OM4
  • InfiniBand NDR 400G/800G switches and ConnectX-7 adapters
  • Standard 400GbE switches with MPO-12 APC optical interfaces
Important Note: This cable cannot mate with MPO-12/UPC (ultra polish, blue shell) connectors. Mixed use will damage ferrule end faces and cause link failure. For distances beyond 50m, please use single-mode MFP7E20 series cables.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Is MFP7E10-N050 guaranteed for 800G at full 50 meters?
A: Yes, when used with NVIDIA MMA4Z00-NS transceivers and two patch panels (4 mated pairs), the 50m link is within the specified optical budget. OM4 fiber is required for this distance.
Q2: Can I use OM3 fiber instead of OM4 for 50m?
A: No. OM3 fiber supports 800G only up to 30 meters. For 50m, OM4 is mandatory to maintain signal integrity and meet the loss budget.
Q3: What is the difference between MFP7E10-N050 and MFP7E20-N050?
A: MFP7E10-N050 is multimode OM4 for distances up to 50m. MFP7E20-N050 is single-mode for distances beyond 50m (up to 500m+).
Handling Precautions
  • Do not remove dust caps until the moment of installation. Contamination is the #1 cause of link degradation, especially at 50m distances.
  • Always clean both cable connector and transceiver optical receptacle using an MPO-APC specific cleaner before insertion.
  • Do not bend the cable tighter than 30 mm radius, particularly near connectors where stress can increase insertion loss.
  • Never mix MPO-APC (green/slanted) with MPO-UPC (blue/flat) -- physical damage will occur.
  • Comply with standard ESD precautions when handling pluggable transceivers, although the cable itself is passive.
  • For 50m deployments, ensure cable pathways do not exceed bend radius limits to maintain optical performance.
