QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP28-400G-AOC-2M7FT 400G QSFP-DD 8 x 50G PAM4 to 4 x 100G QSFP28 4 x 25G NRZ Active Optical Breakout Cable, 2m (7ft)

The HT-manufactured QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP28-400G-AOC-2M7FT compatible cable provides 400G connectivity for multi-vendor equipment. This 2m (7ft) version is a factory-terminated active optical link with the optical engines and fiber integrated into the assembly, with an exact part number and length that can be matched directly to the equipment requirement.

The listed modulation format is QSFP-DD-8x 50G-PAM4QSFP28-4x 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.

QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP28-400G-AOC-2M7FT 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.

QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP28-400G-AOC-2M7FT occupies the middle of this family between QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP28-400G-AOC-1M3FT at 1m (3ft) and QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP28-400G-AOC-3M10FT 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.

The rated power consumption is 10W (QSFP-DD End)5.5W (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 OFNP 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 QSFP-DD MSA, SFF-8661, IEEE802.3bs-400GAUI-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 4x 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.

The optical engines and fiber are permanently integrated into this AOC. There are no detachable optical modules to clean or exchange. Handle the complete assembly by its connector housings and cable, and keep both ends matched to the same interface specification.

For this Generic application, testing combines digital identification with actual traffic-link verification and optical link operation, receive activity and diagnostic readouts. Both ends are inspected for latch, boot and connector damage. If the project uses a specific hardware revision or a channelized port, send those details so that the intended configuration can be reviewed before shipment.

Quote HT part number QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP28-400G-AOC-2M7FT with the required quantity. The 2m (7ft) 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.

Before packing, our team checks the cable jacket, connector boots, latches and identification of each assembly. The cable is then secured in a loose coil and protected against dust and connector impact. Neutral packaging, customer part-number labels and project-specific carton lists can be supplied on request.

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.
