QSFP56 to 2x QSFP28-200G-AOC-30M98FT 200G QSFP56 4 x 50G PAM4 to 2 x 100G QSFP28 4 x 25G NRZ Active Optical Breakout Cable, 30m (98ft)

Use the QSFP56 to 2x QSFP28-200G-AOC-30M98FT compatible assembly where a 200G connection is required between compatible ports. This page covers the 30m (98ft) version only, with its own HT part number, specifications and compatibility verification.

The listed modulation format is QSFP56-4x 50G-PAM4 QSFP28-4x 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.

QSFP56 to 2x QSFP28-200G-AOC-30M98FT is the longest of 10 verified length options in this family. Compared with QSFP56 to 2x QSFP28-200G-AOC-25M82FT at 25m (82ft), it provides 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 5.5W（QSFP56 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 IEEE 802.3cd-100GAUI-2, IEEE802.3bm-CAUI-4, IEEE 802.3cd, SFF-8661, SFP-8636, SFF-8636. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The QSFP56 to 2x 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.

The extended 30m (98ft) reach supports connections across adjacent racks or between separated equipment rows. Secure the cable along its route, protect both ends from pull loads and preserve ventilation. The integrated AOC construction avoids a chain of separate modules and patch leads.

Our compatibility setup for Generic QSFP56 to 2x QSFP28-200G-AOC-30M98FT is checked together with the physical 30m (98ft) assembly. Factory verification covers connector condition, host identification, error-free link establishment and optical link operation, receive activity and diagnostic readouts. Providing the exact host model and firmware release helps us identify platform-specific requirements before production.

When ordering, specify QSFP56 to 2x QSFP28-200G-AOC-30M98FT, cable length 30m (98ft) and the host platform. This allows our team to verify both the physical assembly and the compatibility requirement before production. Neutral labeling and customer packing lists can be arranged for volume orders.

HT inspects and tests every completed cable before it enters finished stock. Protective caps or covers are fitted where applicable, followed by anti-static or tray packaging and an outer carton. Custom labels can cross-reference the customer part number, QSFP56 to 2x QSFP28-200G-AOC-30M98FT and the 30m (98ft) length for easier inventory control.

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.
