1) Product Information / Product Description / Basic Information / Specification
The CC-OSFP08DR8-12D Optical Transceiver Module targets next-generation 800G fabrics in cloud, AI, and HPC environments. Eight host 100G lanes are mapped to eight optical lanes at 1310 nm, delivering stable DR-class links up to 500 m on single-mode fiber. This hot-pluggable OSFP Type-2 optical module pairs a compact thermal footprint with dual MTP-8 APC ports and CMIS control for streamlined operations across mixed platforms. For many operators, this class is also known as 800g osfp, simplifying search, qualification, and lifecycle management.
2) Characteristics
- Form factor: OSFP Type-2, hot-pluggable; high front-panel density.
- Aggregate rate: 800 Gb/s via 8 × 53.125 GBd PAM4.
- Optics: 1310 nm EML transmitters with PIN receivers per lane.
- Reach: 500 m over SMF (DR link budget).
- Power/thermal: 3.3 V rail, ~14.6 W typical, 0–70 °C case.
- Management: CMIS over I²C with interrupt, reset, present, and low-power modes.
3) Technology
Built to OSFP MSA with CMIS for 8/16-lane pluggables, the design employs PAM4 signaling to reach 800G without increasing faceplate port counts. EML lasers at 1310 nm provide linearity and dispersion tolerance; PIN-PD receivers maintain sensitivity and margin required by DR optics. The Optical Transceiver Module adheres to common register maps and state machines, ensuring uniform behavior across switch NOS variants.
4) Theory / Working Principle
Internally, a retimer/gearbox conditions eight 100G electrical lanes and drives PAM4 symbols to eight EMLs. On receive, PIN/TIA fronts recover signals back to the host SerDes. A two-wire I²C bus exposes CMIS pages for inventory, thresholds, power state, and fault handling—allowing the optical module to integrate with automated provisioning and fleet tooling.
5) Application / Usage
- Spine–leaf fabrics in cloud data centers with deterministic 500 m DR uplinks (ToR/EoR/aggregation).
- AI training clusters and storage backbones where airflow and thermal margins are constrained.
- HPC interconnects standardizing on 800g osfp for high-radix chassis and modular line cards.
