The nVidia Mellanox MCP1600-E02AE26 is a direct attach copper (DAC) cable manufactured by nVidia. It features QSFP28 connectors on both ends and supports data transmission speeds up to 100 Gbps over a length of 2.5 meters.

This passive DAC cable enables short-distance point-to-point connections between compatible network devices, such as switches or NICs equipped with QSFP28 ports. It requires no external power source and offers low latency for high-throughput applications in rack-level deployments where distances fall within the supported range.
