Credo Technology is sampling a new family of HiWire Active Electrical Cables (AECs) specifically targeted for 400G AI/ML Backend Network Connections to Top of Rack (TOR) Switches.
The new family of HiWire AECs includes:
- 400G OSFP-RHS (4x112) to 400G QSFP-DD (8x56) for 12.8T TORs
- 400G QSFP112 (4x112) to 400G QSFP-DD (8x56) for 12.8T TORs
- 800G 2xOSFP-RHS (4x112) to 800G OSFP (8x112) for 25.6Tb and 51.2Tb TORs
- 800G 2xQSFP112 (4x112) to 800G OSFP (8x112) for 25.6Tb and 51.2Tb TORs
- 800G 2xOSFP-RHS (4x112) to 800G QSFP-DD (8x112) for 25.6Tb and 51.2Tb TORs
- 800G 2xQSFP112 (4x112) to 800G QSFP-DD (8x112) for 25.6Tb and 51.2Tb TORs
- 800G 2xQSFP-DD (4x112) to 800G QSFP-DD (8x112) for 25.6Tb and 51.2Tb TORs
“400G AI/ML backend networks have proliferated in the past year and have migrated 112G/lane connectivity to Network Interface Cards (NICs) ahead of many customers’ networking plans,” said Don Barnetson, Vice President of Product at Credo. “Credo’s innovative HiWire AECs can help bridge this gap with in-cable speed shifting to enable use of legacy 12.8T TORs and Y cable configurations for 25 and 51Tb TORs.”
