QSFP112 to QSFP112-400G-AEC-3M10FT 400G QSFP112 4 x 100G PAM4 Active Electrical Cable, 3m (10ft)

This 3m (10ft) AEC cable is built for multi-vendor equipment requiring the QSFP112 to QSFP112-400G-AEC-3M10FT interface. The 400Gbps link uses QSFP112 to QSFP112 and is supplied as one complete tested assembly.

Product Highlights

• HT-manufactured AEC assembly in 3m (10ft)
• 400G connectivity at 400Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP112 to QSFP112
• Fixed length and part number: 3m (10ft), QSFP112 to QSFP112-400G-AEC-3M10FT
• Cable construction: Active DAC (AEC)
• Conductor specification: 32AWG
• Maximum power consumption: <8W Per End
• Minimum bend radius: 26.5mm

The listed modulation format is 4x 100G-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.

The rated power consumption is <8W 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 32AWG conductors, PET jacket, minimum bend radius 26.5mm. 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 determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include QSFP112 MSA, IEEE 802.3ck 400GBase-CR4, CMIS 5.0. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

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.

QSFP112 to QSFP112-400G-AEC-3M10FT is the longest of 3 verified length options in this family. Compared with QSFP112 to QSFP112-400G-AEC-2M7FT at 2m (7ft), it provides 1m 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 HT cable carries the compatibility configuration associated with QSFP112 to QSFP112-400G-AEC-3M10FT, while its mechanical assembly remains the fixed 3m (10ft) version described here. Incoming inspection, connector examination and a live link test are completed before packing. Customers with unusually old or new Generic software can request a pre-order check.

This product is ordered as QSFP112 to QSFP112-400G-AEC-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.

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.

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.
