MMA1L30-CM Overview

Mellanox MMA1L30-CM Optical Module 100GbE QSFP28 LC-LC 1310nm CWDM4 Up to 2km

Mellanox MMA1L30-CM transceiver is a single mode, 4-channel (CWDM4), QSFP28 optical transceiver designed for use in 100 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) links on up to 2km of single mode fiber. It is also qualified for use in Mellanox InfiniBand EDR end-to-end systems. The module converts 4 input channels of 25Gb/s electrical data to 4 channels of CWDM optical signals and then multiplexes them into a single fiber, using a nominal wavelength of 1310nm, for 100Gb/s optical transmission. Reversely on the receiver side, the module de-multiplexes a 100Gb/s optical input into 4 channels of CWDM optical signals and then converts them to 4 output channels of electrical data. It is compliant with the QSFP28 MSA, IEEE 802.3bm CAUI-4. Digital diagnostic functions are available via the I2C interface, as specified by the QSFP28 MSA. Rigorous production testing ensures the best out-of-the-box installation experience, performance and durability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the primary function of the Mellanox MMA1L30-CM QSFP28 transceiver? +
The Mellanox MMA1L30-CM is a high-performance QSFP28 transceiver designed for 100GbE data center applications. It utilizes Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing (CWDM) technology to transmit data over single-mode fiber. This module is ideal for high-density networking environments that require increased bandwidth and efficient fiber utilization between switches, routers, and servers in large-scale enterprise or cloud infrastructures.
Which cabling infrastructure is required for the MMA1L30-CM module? +
This module is engineered for use with single-mode fiber optic cabling. It is specifically optimized for CWDM applications, allowing network administrators to multiplex multiple signals onto a single fiber pair. Ensure your existing structured cabling supports the necessary LC duplex connectors and meets the single-mode specifications required to maintain signal integrity over the distance supported by this specific transceiver model.
Does the MMA1L30-CM support backward compatibility with 40GbE ports? +
The MMA1L30-CM is natively designed as a 100GbE QSFP28 module. While the QSFP28 form factor is physically compatible with QSFP+ ports, actual operational performance depends on the specific host switch or router's ability to down-clock the port speed or support 100G transmission. Always verify your network equipment's port capabilities to ensure seamless integration and avoid potential link negotiation issues in mixed-speed environments.
What deployment scenarios are best suited for Mellanox CWDM4 modules? +
This transceiver is best suited for data center interconnects (DCI) and high-speed campus backbones. By utilizing CWDM4 technology, it allows for cost-effective 100GbE connectivity over longer distances compared to standard short-reach modules. It is an excellent choice for organizations needing to aggregate traffic between distributed rack locations while minimizing the footprint and complexity of their fiber optic cabling infrastructure.
How does the power consumption profile of this QSFP28 module affect switch cooling? +
The MMA1L30-CM is engineered for high efficiency, adhering to standard QSFP28 power envelope specifications. By maintaining low power dissipation, it helps reduce the thermal load on your networking switches and routers. This efficiency is critical in high-density deployments where cooling capacity is a limiting factor, ensuring that your core infrastructure maintains optimal operating temperatures without overstressing internal fan systems.
Is any special software configuration required to enable the MMA1L30-CM in a Mellanox switch? +
In most Mellanox (NVIDIA) networking environments, this transceiver is detected automatically upon insertion. The switch operating system typically recognizes the module signature and initializes the port parameters without requiring manual intervention. However, it is always recommended to ensure your switch firmware is updated to the latest version to ensure full compatibility, feature support, and optimal link stabilization when deploying high-speed optical transceivers.
Can I use the MMA1L30-CM in a non-Mellanox switch? +
While the MMA1L30-CM adheres to industry-standard QSFP28 specifications, compatibility with third-party hardware depends on the switch manufacturer's vendor-lock policies. Many modern enterprise switches allow the use of standard-compliant modules, but some platforms may require specific transceiver identification. It is advisable to consult your switch compatibility matrix or verify the specific vendor requirements before integrating this hardware into a heterogeneous network environment.
What is the typical reach of the MMA1L30-CM for 100GbE data transmission? +
The MMA1L30-CM is specifically optimized for reach exceeding standard short-range multimode transceivers, typically supporting distances up to 2 kilometers over single-mode fiber. This makes it an ideal solution for inter-building connectivity or large-scale data center campus networks where high-throughput 100G signals must traverse longer physical runs while maintaining low latency and high signal fidelity across the optical medium.
