NVIDIA/Mellanox MCP7H60-W01AR30 Compatible 400G QSFP-DD 8 x 50G PAM4 to 2 x 200G QSFP56 4 x 50G PAM4 Ethernet Passive Copper Breakout Cable, 1.5m (5ft)

For short, high-density connections, this DAC cable combines 400G performance with a fixed 1.5m (5ft) cable run. It corresponds to NVIDIA/Mellanox MCP7H60-W01AR30 and uses a factory-terminated passive copper link without separate optical modules or patch cords.

OEM Part Number: MCP7H60-W01AR30HT Part Number: MCP7H60-W01AR30

Product Highlights

• Compatible alternative to NVIDIA/Mellanox MCP7H60-W01AR30
• 400G connectivity at 400Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP-DD to 2x QSFP56
• Fixed length and part number: 1.5m (5ft), MCP7H60-W01AR30
• Cable construction: Passive Twinax
• Conductor specification: 28AWG
• Maximum power consumption: 0.1W (QSFP-DD End) 0.1W (QSFP56 Per End)
• Minimum bend radius: 39.5mm

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.

The additional half metre beyond a one-metre assembly gives MCP7H60-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.

MCP7H60-W01AR30 occupies the middle of this family between MCP7H60-W001R30 at 1m (3ft) and MCP7H60-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.

This assembly uses 28AWG conductors, PVC jacket, minimum bend radius 39.5mm. 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 400G Ethernet. Listed interface and protocol references include IEEE802.3Bj, By, IEEE802.3CD, SFF-8679, SFF-8636. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The QSFP-DD to 2x 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.

Compatibility is more than matching the QSFP-DD to 2x QSFP56 shape. This assembly is prepared for hosts expecting MCP7H60-W01AR30 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.

Use part number MCP7H60-W01AR30 for the 1.5m (5ft) assembly. For mixed-length projects, list each required part number and quantity separately so that every cable can be tested and packed according to its intended installation.

Production inspection covers both physical condition and a live link check. Connector ends receive individual protection, and the completed assembly is packed without tight ties or sharp bends. For multi-length projects, cartons can be separated and labelled by OEM part number to simplify installation on site.

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.
