400G QSFP-DD QDD PCxxx Passive DAC

The 400G QSFP-DD QDD PCxxx Passive DAC provides a 400Gbps copper connection between QSFP-DD to QSFP-DD ports with a cable length of customized length. As a passive cable it draws essentially no power and adds no latency to the link. 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.

Applications
Designed for 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the 400G QSFP-DD QDD PCxxx Passive DAC carries 400Gbps between QSFP-DD to QSFP-DD interfaces. The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. Our factory programs the compatibility coding for your switch brand before shipment and verifies each unit on real host equipment. The link runs 8x 50G PAM4 modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 400G switch silicon.
Standards and Compatibility
Standards compliance covers industry MSA standards. The unit works in any equipment with a standard QSFP-DD to QSFP-DD interface; if your network uses a specific vendor's coding, tell us the switch model and we will program and verify it before delivery.
Ordering Information
This model is supplied at standard length under part number QDD-400G-PCxxx. Other lengths of the same assembly can be produced on request. Wire gauge: 30AWG for 0.5/1/1.5m, 28AWG for 2m, 26AWG for 2.5/3m.
Factory Custom Capability
Working directly with the manufacturer means no middleman limits. We support OEM and ODM projects, custom cable assemblies, alternative packaging and compatibility coding for major equipment vendors, with engineering support from the same team that designs our standard products.
Worldwide Delivery
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.
Tested Before Shipment
We do not ship untested stock. Each transceiver and cable is powered up in our test racks, checked for link stability, transmit power, receiver sensitivity and diagnostic readouts, and only then packed for delivery. This factory-level testing is one reason network integrators keep reordering from us year after year.
Packaging Options
Default packaging is simple and protective: sealed bag, blister tray, export carton. For OEM customers we also offer white-label packing, custom printed boxes and per-unit labeling with your own part numbers, so the goods can go straight into your sales channel.
