The listed modulation format is 8x 50G-PAM4 to Quad 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.

This assembly uses 28AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 30mm. 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 OSFP MSA, IEEE 802.3cd, CMIS v4.0. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) 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.

At 3m (10ft), this assembly can bridge non-aligned ports or adjacent racks while remaining a single direct-attach link. Support longer horizontal runs with suitable cable management and preserve space for cooling and future maintenance.

OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 4x QSFP56-400G-DAC-3M10FT is the longest of 6 verified length options in this family. Compared with OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 4x QSFP56-400G-DAC-2.5M8FT at 2.5m (8ft), it provides 0.5m of additional reach for a longer vertical drop, a wider rack or an adjacent-cabinet route. Confirm that the complete path requires this length, because unused slack still needs supported, bend-safe storage.

The rated power consumption is 0.1W (OSFP 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.

Our compatibility setup for Generic OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 4x QSFP56-400G-DAC-3M10FT is checked together with the physical 3m (10ft) assembly. Factory verification covers connector condition, host identification, error-free link establishment and electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Providing the exact host model and firmware release helps us identify platform-specific requirements before production.

This product is ordered as OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 4x QSFP56-400G-DAC-3M10FT in 3m (10ft). 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.

Quality control includes connector appearance, cable identification and functional verification. Packing materials are selected to keep the connector housings and cable boots from taking impact during transport, and the coil is not compressed into an undersized bundle. Volume orders can include customer-specific labels and packing documentation.

Lead time for ordinary configurations is normally one to three working days, while production quantities are confirmed with the order. We can arrange express courier or economy freight according to destination and carton volume, or hand the shipment to your appointed logistics provider.
