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-3M10FT is the longest of 4 verified length options in this family. Compared with QSFP56 to 4x SFP56-200G-DAC-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 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.

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.

Each QSFP56 to 4x SFP56-200G-DAC-3M10FT 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.

This product is ordered as QSFP56 to 4x SFP56-200G-DAC-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.

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.

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.
