About the MMA1L30-CM

The NVIDIA MMA1L30-CM optical transceiver delivers intermediate reach 100 Gigabit Ethernet transport for data center campus backbones and spine leaf fabric architectures. Operating across four CWDM optical wavelength lanes around 1310 nanometers, it transmits high throughput traffic up to 2 kilometers over standard single mode optical fibre.

Compatibility

Compatible with NVIDIA Spectrum SN2000, SN3000, and SN4000 Series Ethernet switches. It operates with host Forward Error Correction (RS-FEC) enabled on QSFP28 interfaces to guarantee IEEE 802.3bm bit error rate standards under Cumulus Linux and Onyx environments.

How to identify a genuine unit

Packaged in an industry standard QSFP28 metallic shell featuring a green pull tab release mechanism denoting CWDM4 optical technology. The factory label clearly states part designation MMA1L30-CM, NVIDIA branding, serial number, and regulatory certification marks.

Buying used

Inspect the duplex optical port with a fiber scope to ensure no dust or surface scratching on the lenses. Mount the module into a switch QSFP28 port to verify that the transceiver authenticates cleanly and reports balanced optical power metrics across all four wavelength channels.

Works together

How the NVIDIA MMA1L30-CM connects to servers, storage and the network: 3 ways, with the hardware on each path.

iSCSI and NVMe/TCP over EthernetFile storage (NFS and SMB)Hyperconverged cluster

iSCSI and NVMe/TCP over Ethernet

Keep the speed the same at all three points: a 25GbE server, a 25GbE switch port and a 25GbE array port. Mixed speeds work but the slowest link sets the pace.

Storage

iSCSI and NVMe/TCP over Ethernet: how it fits together

File storage (NFS and SMB)

Front-end ports face the clients; back-end ports (on scale-out systems) connect the nodes to each other and need their own switch pair.

Hyperconverged cluster

Plan at least two 25GbE ports per node to two switches; all-NVMe clusters often move to 100GbE.
