Cinch has combined the NX and QSFP+ high speed cable families to provide hybrid cable assemblies exceeding published industry standard performance requirements for InfiniBand DDR (5Gb/s), QDR (10Gb/s), 40Gb Ethernet (XLAUI) and SFF8436 and SFF8470. Passive cables are available in wire gauges including 24, 26, 28 and 30 AWG in various lengths from 0.50m 30AWG to 10m 24AWG for InfiniBand DDR and 8m 24AWG for InfiniBand QDR and 40G Ethernet.

The QSFP+ plug is complete with DC blocking capacitors and a programmed EEPROM cable management interface to support proper tap settings on the transmitter and receiver circuits. The QSFP+ cable plugs also include an I2C module select buffer to prevent overloading of the clock driver in multi-cable switching installations. The Cinch NX waferized cable plug with Direct Attach laser welded cable termination and the Cinch QSFP+ PairShield™ paddlecard termination provides the industry’s lowest multi-aggressor crosstalk to assure error free interconnects.
