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

The QSFP56 to QSFP56-200G-DAC-2M7FT cable offers a direct QSFP56 to QSFP56 connection at 200Gbps. Its 2m (7ft) length and DAC construction are intended for multi-vendor equipment, with no separate transceiver-and-patch-cord assembly required.

OEM Part Number: QSFP56 to QSFP56-200G-DAC-2M7FTHT Part Number: QSFP56 to QSFP56-200G-DAC-2M7FT

Product Highlights

• HT-manufactured DAC assembly in 2m (7ft)
• 200G connectivity at 200Gbps
• Interface configuration: QSFP56 to QSFP56
• Fixed length and part number: 2m (7ft), QSFP56 to QSFP56-200G-DAC-2M7FT
• Cable construction: Passive Twinax
• Conductor specification: 30AWG
• Maximum power consumption: 0.03W Per End
• Minimum bend radius: 39mm

The rated power consumption is 0.03W 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.

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include IEEE802.3cd, SFF-8436. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

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.

QSFP56 to QSFP56-200G-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 QSFP56-200G-DAC-2M7FT occupies the middle of this family between QSFP56 to QSFP56-200G-DAC-1M3FT at 1m (3ft) and QSFP56 to QSFP56-200G-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.

This assembly uses 30AWG conductors, PVC jacket, minimum bend radius 39mm. 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.

Each QSFP56 to QSFP56-200G-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.

This product is ordered as QSFP56 to QSFP56-200G-DAC-2M7FT in 2m (7ft). 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.

Stock items are generally dispatched within one to three working days after order confirmation. DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT and EMS are available for international delivery; larger consolidated orders can move by air or sea freight. Customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
