Applications
The 400G QSFP-DD to 2 x 200G QSFP56 Active Copper Breakout DAC Cable connects QSFP-DD to 2 QSFP56 ports at 400Gbps in 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments. This unit is supplied at 1m (3ft). Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. Our factory programs the compatibility coding for your switch brand before shipment and verifies each unit on real host equipment.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with QSFP-DD MSA, SFF-8636, SFF-8679. It plugs into any standards-based QSFP-DD to 2 QSFP56 port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.
Ordering Information
This model is supplied at 1m (3ft) under part number QDD-400G-2QACxxx. Other lengths of the same assembly can be produced on request. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Logistics
Our warehouse keeps fast-moving transceivers and cables ready for same-week dispatch. Courier, air freight and sea freight options are all available depending on your budget and schedule, and we consolidate multiple items into one shipment whenever it saves you cost.
Quality and Testing
Every unit we ship is tested in our own test bed on mainstream switch and transport platforms before packing. Our test center has been fully upgraded, which sets us apart from other third party product providers: 10G, 40G, 100G, 200G and 400G transceivers and direct attach cables are verified on the latest top brand equipment, including selected original switches that can hardly be found elsewhere.
Packaging
Each unit is sealed in an anti-static bag, cushioned in a blister tray and boxed in an export-grade carton. Outer cartons carry handling marks and can be palletized for air or sea freight. If your project requires retail boxes, barcodes or your own brand on the label, we can arrange that as well.
Built to Your Spec
Our product line has grown with the industry for three decades, from GBIC-era modules to today's 800G and 1.6T interconnects. If the exact configuration you need is not listed, we can usually build it: custom lengths, mixed connector breakouts, OEM branding and project-specific firmware coding are all supported.
