400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 4x 100G QSFP56 2x 50G PAM4 Active Breakout DAC Cable

The 400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 4x 100G QSFP56 2x 50G PAM4 Active Breakout DAC Cable provides a 400Gb/s copper connection between QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP56 ports with a cable length of 5m. Active electronics inside the connectors extend the usable reach compared with passive copper while keeping power draw low. Direct attach copper keeps both latency and power consumption to a minimum, which makes it the economical choice for 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments.

Product Highlights

Designed for 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the 400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 4x 100G QSFP56 2x 50G PAM4 Active Breakout DAC Cable carries 400Gb/s between QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP56 interfaces. This unit is stocked in 3 standard lengths from 3m (10ft) to 5m (16ft). By fanning one port out to 4x QSFP56, it doubles or quadruples the number of endpoints served per switch port and keeps the cabling plant simple. If your project needs a specific vendor coding or custom label, our production line handles it as a routine step before packing.

Standards compliance covers QSFP-DD MSA SFF-8679 SFF-8636. The unit works in any equipment with a standard QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP56 interface; if your network uses a specific vendor's coding, tell us the switch model and we will program and verify it before delivery.

Order reference: part number QDD-400G-4QAC. Standard supply covers 3m (10ft), 4m (13ft) and 5m (16ft). Custom length production is available for project requirements. Wire gauge: 28 AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.

We ship to customers around the world every week. Express couriers handle most orders door to door in a few days; larger consignments go by air or sea to keep freight costs down. Tracking information is provided for every shipment, and we are flexible on shipping accounts and forwarders.

Production samples and every outgoing batch pass through bit-error-rate measurement, temperature verification and plug-in compatibility checks on mainstream switches and routers. Because we are the manufacturer, any issue found in testing is fed back to the production line immediately instead of being passed on to customers.

Transceivers and cables are individually protected against static and dust, then consolidated into sturdy cartons suitable for international courier shipment. For larger orders we shrink-wrap and strap cartons onto pallets. Tell us your warehouse or retail requirements and we will pack accordingly.

Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.
