QSFP-DD to 8x 25G SFP28-200G-AOC-5M16FT 200G QSFP-DD 8 x 25G NRZ to 8 x 25G SFP28 25G NRZ Active Optical Breakout Cable, 5m (16ft)

For short, high-density connections, this AOC cable combines 200G performance with a fixed 5m (16ft) cable run. It corresponds to Generic QSFP-DD to 8x 25G SFP28-200G-AOC-5M16FT and uses a factory-terminated active optical link with the optical engines and fiber integrated into the assembly.

The listed modulation format is 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 QSFP-DD to 8x 25G SFP28 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.

The 5m (16ft) length gives QSFP-DD to 8x 25G SFP28-200G-AOC-5M16FT more freedom for adjacent-rack and row-end deployments. The integrated optical assembly should be supported along its route without tight bends or connector pull loads; the AOC specification and host support must still match the intended link.

QSFP-DD to 8x 25G SFP28-200G-AOC-5M16FT occupies the middle of this family between QSFP-DD to 8x 25G SFP28-200G-AOC-3M10FT at 3m (10ft) and QSFP-DD to 8x 25G SFP28-200G-AOC-7M23FT at 7m (23ft). It adds 2m over the shorter option for extra routing clearance, while the next longer version adds another 2m. 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 QSFP-DD <4W,SFP28 <1W. 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 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 V5.0,SFP28 MSA,CMIS V4.0,SFF-8472. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

Compatibility is more than matching the QSFP-DD to 8x 25G SFP28 shape. This assembly is prepared for hosts expecting QSFP-DD to 8x 25G SFP28-200G-AOC-5M16FT and is checked for identification, stable link behavior and optical link operation, receive activity and diagnostic readouts. We recommend confirming the equipment model and software release for critical deployments or mixed-vendor installations.

Use part number QSFP-DD to 8x 25G SFP28-200G-AOC-5M16FT for the 5m (16ft) 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.
