NVIDIA/Mellanox MCP7F60-W01AR30 Compatible 400G QSFP-DD 8 x 50G PAM4 to 4 x 100G QSFP56 2 x 50G PAM4 Ethernet Passive Copper Breakout Cable, 1.5m (5ft)

This 1.5m (5ft) DAC cable is built for NVIDIA/Mellanox equipment requiring the MCP7F60-W01AR30 interface. The 400Gbps link uses QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP56 and is supplied as one complete tested assembly.

The listed modulation format is QSFP-DD-8x 50G-PAM4QSFP56-2x 50G-PAM4. Both host interfaces must be configured for the same aggregate rate and lane arrangement. A connector that fits mechanically does not by itself guarantee that the remote port supports this encoding or breakout mode.

The QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP56 configuration divides the high-speed interface into multiple lower-speed connections. Verify the upstream lane assignment, downstream port speeds and breakout setting on the host before connecting the assembly. Each branch must attach to the correct remote interface.

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 additional half metre beyond a one-metre assembly gives MCP7F60-W01AR30 useful routing flexibility when the ports are not directly aligned. It can accommodate a different rack unit or a short service loop, but excess cable should be dressed loosely rather than folded into a tight coil.

MCP7F60-W01AR30 occupies the middle of this family between MCP7F60-W001R30 at 1m (3ft) and MCP7F60-W002R26 at 2m (7ft). It adds 0.5m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 0.5m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

The rated power consumption is 0.1W (QSFP-DD End)0.1W (QSFP56 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.

This assembly uses 30AWG conductors, PVC jacket, minimum bend radius 41mm. 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 400G Ethernet. Listed interface and protocol references include SFF-8665, QSFP-DD MSA, IEEE802.3bj, IEEE802.3 cd. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

Each MCP7F60-W01AR30 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 NVIDIA/Mellanox platform should be included with the order.

Quote HT part number MCP7F60-W01AR30 with the required quantity. The 1.5m (5ft) 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.

Every MCP7F60-W01AR30 compatible assembly undergoes link testing, compatibility verification and visual inspection. The 1.5m (5ft) cable is coiled without exceeding its minimum bend radius, fitted with connector protection and packed in an anti-static bag or protective tray before cartoning. Project labels and packing lists are available for volume orders.
