Low-profile cable

Wednesday, 16 September, 2009 | Supplied by: WL Gore & Associates


WL Gore has available a low-profile QSFP direct attach copper cable assembly that is fibre-like in size for QDR InfiniBand and 40 GbE aggregate applications.

The cable fulfils the needs of dense, higher-port-count switch installations while providing reliable interconnect for high-performance computing.

The cable was developed for Gore QSFP assemblies and InfiniBand QDR applications. With a diameter of 0.170″ for a 4x channel, 8-pair cable, the cross-section saving is 37% compared with other company cables and 58% compared with cables from other manufacturers.

This low-profile cable is targeted at high-performance computing applications where a large percentage of high-density, port-count interconnects are 2 m or less (eg, in top-of-the-rack switching installations).

The reduced bend radius and smaller diameter allow for more aggressive routing as well as cleaner dressing of the cables in high-performance computing environments.
