Dell 470-ADFD Compatible 200G QSFP-DD 8 x 25G NRZ Passive Copper Twinax Cable, 0.5m (2ft)

The HT-manufactured 470-ADFD compatible cable provides 200G connectivity for Dell equipment. This 0.5m (2ft) version is a factory-terminated passive copper link without separate optical modules or patch cords, with an exact part number and length that can be matched directly to the equipment requirement.

OEM Part Number: 470-ADFDHT Part Number: 470-ADFD

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to Dell 470-ADFD
• 200G connectivity at 200Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP-DD to QSFP-DD
• Fixed length and part number: 0.5m (2ft), 470-ADFD
• Cable construction: Passive Twinax
• Conductor specification: 30AWG
• Maximum power consumption: 0.1W Per End
• Minimum bend radius: 34.5mm

The rated power consumption is 0.1W Per End. Include this load in the host-port power and thermal budget, especially in densely populated switches. Maintain front-panel clearance and do not bundle the cable so tightly that it obstructs airflow around the connectors.

A passive DAC has no separate optical conversion stage. Its low-power, low-latency operation is useful for short equipment links, but the assembly must remain within the length and signaling mode accepted by both hosts.

The 0.5m (2ft) length is suited to closely aligned ports where excessive slack would obstruct airflow or complicate dressing. Measure the actual port-to-port path before choosing 470-ADFD; even a short assembly must retain the specified bend radius and should never be pulled tight behind the equipment.

470-ADFD is the shortest of 6 verified length options in this family. It is the preferred choice when the port positions are close and cable slack must be kept to a minimum. The next option is 470-ADFD at 1m (3ft), adding 0.5m for a less direct routing path; selecting it unnecessarily would leave more cable to dress.

This assembly uses 30AWG conductors, PVC jacket, minimum bend radius 34.5mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include IEEE 802.3bj, QSFP-DD MSA, CMIS, SFF-8417. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

Each 470-ADFD compatible cable is powered up on a suitable test interface rather than checked only for continuity. We confirm the expected identification and observe electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Because operating systems can apply different qualification rules by hardware revision, the intended Dell platform should be included with the order.

Quote HT part number 470-ADFD with the required quantity. The 0.5m (2ft) length is fixed for this part number; if a different length is needed, select its corresponding page and OEM reference from the length list above. Standard HT labels and project-specific packaging are available.

Before packing, our team checks the cable jacket, connector boots, latches and identification of each assembly. The cable is then secured in a loose coil and protected against dust and connector impact. Neutral packaging, customer part-number labels and project-specific carton lists can be supplied on request.

Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days. Worldwide courier, air freight and sea freight options are available, and shipments can also be sent on your own courier account or delivered to an appointed forwarder.
