400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 2x 200G QSFP56 4x 50G PAM4 Passive Breakout DAC Cable

The 400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 2x 200G QSFP56 4x 50G PAM4 Passive Breakout DAC Cable, 2m provides a 400Gbps copper connection between QSFP-DD to 2x QSFP56 ports with a cable length of 2m (7ft). As a passive cable it draws essentially no power and adds no latency to the link. Direct attach copper keeps both latency and power consumption to a minimum, which makes it the economical choice for 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments.

The 400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 2x 200G QSFP56 4x 50G PAM4 Passive Breakout DAC Cable, 2m is a 400Gbps direct attach copper cable for QSFP-DD to 2x QSFP56 connections in 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments. This unit is available in 6 standard lengths from 0.5m (2ft) to 3m (10ft). One port becomes 2x QSFP56, a common pattern for connecting newer aggregation ports to an installed base of lower speed equipment. If your project needs a specific vendor coding or custom label, our production line handles it as a routine step before packing.

Standards compliance covers IEEE802.3Bj, By, IEEE802.3CD, SFF-8679, SFF-8636. The unit works in any equipment with a standard QSFP-DD to 2x QSFP56 interface; if your network uses a specific vendor's coding, tell us the switch model and we will program and verify it before delivery.

The standard part number of this assembly is QDD-400G-2QPC. We supply this cable in 0.5m (2ft), 1m (3ft), 1.5m (5ft), 2m (7ft), 2.5m (8ft) and 3m (10ft). Custom lengths beyond this range can also be produced on request. Wire gauge: 28AWG.

Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.

Products are first packed into blister trays or self-sealed bags and then into cartons. Standard labels and marks are applied by default, and customized packing and labeling are available on request.

Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.

Our warehouse keeps fast-moving transceivers and cables ready for same-week dispatch. Courier, air freight and sea freight options are all available depending on your budget and schedule, and we consolidate multiple items into one shipment whenever it saves you cost.
