About the NVIDIA Mellanox 980-9IAY1-00XM00
The NVIDIA Mellanox 980-9IAY1-00XM00 is a hot-swappable OSFP single-port 800GBASE-DR4 Gen2 optical transceiver for 800 Gbps Ethernet links over single-mode fiber, with an MPO/APC interface and reach of up to 500 m SMF. It is the Ethernet-only Gen2 single-port 800GbE DR4, ordered by NVIDIA SKU only, for ConnectX-8 / BlueField-4 ports in Spectrum-X 800GbE fabrics. XDR 800G optics run four 200G PAM4 lanes per port, for Quantum-X800 InfiniBand and Spectrum-X800 Ethernet fabrics with ConnectX-8 / BlueField-4 adapters. Typical uses: NDR / XDR InfiniBand and 400GbE / 800GbE AI back-end fabrics on Quantum-2, Quantum-X800, Spectrum-4 and Spectrum-X.

980-9IAY1-00XM00: frequently asked questions
What is the NVIDIA Mellanox 980-9IAY1-00XM00?
The 980-9IAY1-00XM00 is an OSFP single-port 800GBASE-DR4 Gen2 module from NVIDIA's LinkX range for 800 Gbps Ethernet links. It plugs into an OSFP port on an NVIDIA / Mellanox switch, adapter or DPU and is used for NDR / XDR InfiniBand and 400GbE / 800GbE AI back-end fabrics on Quantum-2, Quantum-X800, Spectrum-4 and Spectrum-X.
What is the maximum distance of the 980-9IAY1-00XM00?
NVIDIA specifies the 980-9IAY1-00XM00 for up to 500 m on single-mode fiber.
Which fiber and connector does the 980-9IAY1-00XM00 need?
The 980-9IAY1-00XM00 uses a MPO/APC (single-mode) connector on single-mode fiber (OS2), at 1310 nm (4 parallel lanes). APC connectors have an angled (green) end-face, so use APC patch cords and MPO trunks; a UPC cord will not mate correctly. Both ends of the link must use the same optical standard.
Is the 980-9IAY1-00XM00 an Ethernet-only part?
Yes. NVIDIA lists the 980-9IAY1-00XM00 for Ethernet (800GBASE-DR4 Gen2) use. For InfiniBand use the NDR / XDR qualified version of the same family.
Which housing is the 980-9IAY1-00XM00: finned, flat-top, IHS or RHS?
NVIDIA lists the 980-9IAY1-00XM00 as OSFP single-port, RHS. Finned / IHS housings go in air-cooled switch cages with open OSFP slots; flat-top / RHS housings go in cages that carry their own heat-sink (ConnectX adapters, DGX / GB-series trays, liquid-cooled switches). Fit the housing to the cage, otherwise the module will not seat or cool properly.
Is the 980-9IAY1-00XM00 compatible with my NVIDIA / Mellanox switch or adapter?
It works in NVIDIA and Mellanox platforms with OSFP ports that list this part in their firmware 'validated and supported cables and modules' table. Send us your switch / adapter model and firmware version and we check it against NVIDIA's support list before dispatch, so you only receive a module that links up in your port.
Anything to check before ordering the 980-9IAY1-00XM00?
Ordered by NVIDIA SKU; no legacy MMS part number.
Is your 980-9IAY1-00XM00 genuine NVIDIA / Mellanox?
Yes. Next Gen Networks supplies original NVIDIA (Mellanox) LinkX parts, not third-party lookalikes or grey-market stock. Every unit is checked before dispatch and we share serial numbers on request so you can verify them with mlxlink / mlxcables or the switch's transceiver inventory.
What is the 980-9IAY1-00XM00 price in India and how do I order?
The NVIDIA Mellanox 980-9IAY1-00XM00 price in India depends on quantity, delivery city and current stock. Next Gen Networks supplies it with a GST invoice (input tax credit ready) and pan-India dispatch from New Delhi. Send the part number, quantity and delivery city on WhatsApp +91-7827955775 or email Sales@nextgennetworks.in and we reply with a GST quote.
