Mellanox Network Adapter, QSFP to SFP+ Single Pack MAM1Q00A-QSA) Ethernet Cable Adapter 40Gb/s to 10Gb/s Mellanox QSFP to SFP+
QSA , Mellanox QSFP to SFP+ adapter, enables a smooth cost-effective connection between a single lane transceiver /cable and a quad lane port.
The QSA provides the option to connect an SFP+/SFP transceiver or cable to a QSFP+ port of an Nx40GbE switch or network interface card (NIC).
The QSA should be installed into a QSFP+ port, and is intended to either connect a switch QSFP+ port to a NIC SFP port or connect a NIC QSFP+ port to a switch SFP port.
For example, an SFP based cable can be connected to Mellanox’s 40GbE Connect X -3 NIC and to the 48 x 10GbE SX1012 Ethernet switch.
The QSA conforms to the SFF8418/8419 for the SFP side and to SFF-8436 for the QSFP+ standards and is thoroughly tested to meet strict quality requirements.
The adapter has a QSFP+ form factor with a receptacle for SFP+ transceiver/AOC/DAC connector.
The QSA provides a solution for integrating systems using different vendors’ equipment, since it is vendor agnostic and provides a direct path to the SFP unit’s memory.
The QSA interoperates with all major optical module and direct attach copper cable vendors.
Mellanox QSFP to SFP+ design ensures minimum loss on the conversion path between the QSFP+ cage and the SFP receptacle.
The RF (high speed data) channel of the SFP receptacle is connected to lane 1 of the QSFP+ connector.
The three remaining RF channels on the QSFP+ connector are not connected.
The QSA is qualified for 10GbE SFP+ and 1GbE SFP transceivers meeting the Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver Multi-source Agreement (MSA).
