Every cable is new in box, factory sealed with original NVIDIA Mellanox packaging. These are not refurbished, open-box, or compatible substitute cables. They are genuine OEM units that have never been installed or used.

These are genuine NVIDIA Mellanox OEM cables — the exact same part numbers sold by authorized resellers like Colfax Direct, Connection.com, and Provantage. They are not third-party compatible cables. This matters because NVIDIA Quantum HDR switches perform firmware-level cable authentication, and genuine OEM cables are required to pass BER certification and avoid firmware warnings.

The -V suffix (e.g., MFS1S00-H050V) indicates the VPI (Virtual Protocol Interconnect) version, which supports both InfiniBand HDR and 200GbE simultaneously on the same cable. The -E suffix (e.g., MFS1S00-H050E) is Ethernet-only. All cables in our inventory are the -V (VPI) variants, giving you maximum flexibility for dual-protocol deployments.

NVIDIA issued End-of-Life (EOL) notices for the MFS1S00-H090V and MFS1S00-H035V in March 2022. This means NVIDIA no longer manufactures these variants. Our new-in-box stock represents last-time-buy inventory. The cables are fully functional and supported — EOL only means no new production. If you are running existing HDR infrastructure that requires these lengths, securing stock now is strongly recommended.

The QSFP56 variants (H035V–H100V) are compatible with: NVIDIA QM8700, QM8790 (HDR InfiniBand switches), QM9700, QM9790 (NDR switches in HDR port mode), MSB7800-ES2F/R, MSB7890-ES2F/R (HDR spine switches). The H035V uses QSFP28 connectors — verify your switch port type before ordering.

Compatible ConnectX adapters include: MCX653106A-HDAT, MCX653105A-HDAT, MCX653106A-ECAT, MCX653105A-ECAT, MCX653106A-HCAT, MCX654105A-HCAT (ConnectX-6 HDR). Also compatible with ConnectX-7 adapters in HDR mode. For a full compatibility list, refer to the NVIDIA MFS1S00-HxxxV product documentation.

Yes. All -V suffix cables support VPI (Virtual Protocol Interconnect), meaning they operate as both InfiniBand HDR 200G and 200GbE simultaneously. The protocol is negotiated at the switch/adapter level — the same physical cable works for both.

The MFS1S00 family supports up to 100 meters over OM3 multimode fiber. The MFS1S00-H100V is the maximum-reach variant. Beyond 100 meters, you would need fiber patch panels with separate QSFP56 transceivers. All cables in our inventory are within the 35m–100m range.
