OSFP for Next-Gen Thermal Performance
TE’s Octal Small Form Factor Pluggable (OSFP) connectors and cable assemblies address next-generation data center needs by supporting aggregate data rates of 200 Gbps and up to 400 Gbps. These products are designed for both 28G NRZ and 56G PAM-4 protocols, with a roadmap to 112G PAM-4 for future system upgrades. By utilizing integrated thermal heatsink technology in the plug, OSFP products provide superior thermal performance and signal integrity needed to support 400G data rates. OSFP products offer high-port density and can fit up to 36 ports of an 8-lane interface in a 1RU switch form factor, aligning with current and next-generation silicon road maps.
New OSFP 112G cages and connectors
TE’s new OSFP 112G cages and connectors add to the wide range of products in the existing OSFP product portfolio providing customers with an 8x112G interconnect solution to support data transfer in next generation high density data center and cloud computing.
