A: The OSFP is a pluggable form factor with 8x high speed electrical lanes that support up to 400 Gbps (8x50G), 800 Gbps (8x100G), or 1. Up to 36 OSFP ports are supported in 1 U front panel. The OSFP Management interface is described in a separate document, Common Management Interface Specification for 8/16X. The Octal Small Form Factor Pluggable (OSFP) Connector System provides up to 224Gbps PAM-4 per lane, single- or dual-port, 8- or 16-lane connectivity. These input/output (I/O) solutions support aggregate data rates up to 1. 6Tbps, helping data centers meet AI-driven capacity demands with minimal. The abbreviation OSFP represents Octal Small Form-factor Pluggable. The OSFP MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) group developed this form factor to solve thermal and density problems. The OSFP MSA is proud to introduce OSFP1600 and OSFP-XD to the industry. and a disclaimer is added to the Other Documents section. 22:. This specification defines the electrical connectors, electrical signals and power supplies, and mechanical and thermal requirements of the OSFP and OSFP-RHS module, connector, and cage systems.
