QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56-200G-AOC-1M3FT 200G QSFP56 4 x 50G PAM4 to 2 x 100G QSFP56 2 x 50G PAM4 Active Optical Breakout Cable, 1m (3ft)

For short, high-density connections, this AOC cable combines 200G performance with a fixed 1m (3ft) cable run. It corresponds to Generic QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56-200G-AOC-1M3FT and uses a factory-terminated active optical link with the optical engines and fiber integrated into the assembly.

The listed modulation format is 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 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.

At 1m (3ft), QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56-200G-AOC-1M3FT is a practical choice for direct connections within one rack. Route the cable along the intended management path rather than pulling it diagonally across adjacent connectors, and leave enough clearance for insertion, removal and front-panel airflow.

QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56-200G-AOC-1M3FT is the shortest of 8 verified length options in this family. It is the preferred choice when the port positions are close and cable slack must be kept to a minimum. The next option is QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56-200G-AOC-2M7FT at 2m (7ft), adding 1m for a less direct routing path; selecting it unnecessarily would leave more cable to dress.

The rated power consumption is 4.5W (200G End) 1.25W (100G 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 802.3, QSFP56 MSA, SFF-8024, SFF-8679, SFF-8665, and SFF-8636. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56 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.

Our compatibility setup for Generic QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56-200G-AOC-1M3FT is checked together with the physical 1m (3ft) 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.

Quote HT part number QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56-200G-AOC-1M3FT with the required quantity. The 1m (3ft) 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.

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 QSFP56-200G-AOC-1M3FT and the 1m (3ft) length for easier inventory control.

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.
