QSFP56 to 4x SFP56-200G-DAC-2M7FT 200G QSFP56 4 x 50G PAM4 to 4 x 50G SFP56 50G PAM4 Passive Copper Breakout Cable, 2m (7ft)

Designed for hosts that recognize QSFP56 to 4x SFP56-200G-DAC-2M7FT, this QSFP56 to 4x SFP56 cable delivers 200G transmission over a fixed 2m (7ft) assembly. Its DAC construction provides a factory-terminated passive copper link without separate optical modules or patch cords.

The listed modulation format is QSFP56-4x 50G-PAM4SFP56-50G-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.

QSFP56 to 4x SFP56-200G-DAC-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.

QSFP56 to 4x SFP56-200G-DAC-2M7FT occupies the middle of this family between QSFP56 to 4x SFP56-200G-DAC-1M3FT at 1m (3ft) and QSFP56 to 4x SFP56-200G-DAC-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 0.1W (QSFP56 End)0.1W (SFP56 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 26AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 35mm. 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 SFF-8661, SFF-8432, IEEE 802.3bs-200GAUI-4, IEEE802.3cd-50GAUI-1, SFP-8636, SFF-8472. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

The QSFP56 to 4x SFP56 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.

A passive DAC has no separate optical conversion stage. Its low-power, low-latency operation is useful for short equipment links, but the assembly must remain within the length and signaling mode accepted by both hosts.

Each QSFP56 to 4x SFP56-200G-DAC-2M7FT compatible cable is powered up on a suitable test interface rather than checked only for continuity. We confirm the expected identification and observe electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. Because operating systems can apply different qualification rules by hardware revision, the intended Generic platform should be included with the order.

Quote HT part number QSFP56 to 4x SFP56-200G-DAC-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.

Quality control includes connector appearance, cable identification and functional verification. Packing materials are selected to keep the connector housings and cable boots from taking impact during transport, and the coil is not compressed into an undersized bundle. Volume orders can include customer-specific labels and packing documentation.

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.
