The listed modulation format is QSFP-DD-8x 25G-NRZQSFP28-4x 25G-NRZ. 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 rated power consumption is 0.1W (QSFP-DD End)0.1W (QSFP28 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 28AWG conductors, PVC jacket, minimum bend radius 35mm. 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 QSFP-DD MSA, SFF-8661, IEEE 802.3bs-200GAUI-8, IEEE802.3bm-CAUI-4, CMIS 4.0, SFF-8636. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The QSFP-DD to 2x QSFP28 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.

MCP7H60-C02 provides 2m (7ft) for connections between separated rack units or nearby equipment positions. Plan the route around cable managers and power cords, keeping the assembly free from connector strain while avoiding a large obstruction in the airflow path.

MCP7H60-C02 occupies the middle of this family between MCP7H60-C01 at 1m (3ft) and MCP7H60-C03 at 3m (10ft). It adds 1m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 1m. Measure the managed path and choose this version when its reach is sufficient without creating the slack associated with the longer assembly.

Compatibility is more than matching the QSFP-DD to 2x QSFP28 shape. This assembly is prepared for hosts expecting MCP7H60-C02 and is checked for identification, stable link behavior and electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. We recommend confirming the equipment model and software release for critical deployments or mixed-vendor installations.

This product is ordered as MCP7H60-C02 in 2m (7ft). Include the equipment model and software release if you would like a pre-order compatibility review. Other lengths use different part numbers and should not be substituted into the same order line.

Every MCP7H60-C02 compatible assembly undergoes link testing, compatibility verification and visual inspection. The 2m (7ft) 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.

Available stock is usually packed and handed to the carrier within one to three working days. Delivery can be arranged by international express, air cargo or sea freight, with tracking details supplied after dispatch. Freight-collect shipments and delivery to a customer warehouse or forwarder can also be coordinated.
