100G SFP-DD 2 x 50G PAM4 Passive DAC

The 100G SFP-DD 2 x 50G PAM4 Passive DAC, 0.5m (2ft) is a passive twinax direct attach copper cable with SFP-DD to SFP-DD, supporting 100Gbps links over a length of 0.5m (2ft). As a passive cable it draws essentially no power and adds no latency to the link. It is a cost effective, low latency interconnect for 100G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, and complies with SFP-DD MSA, SFP-DD MIS, IEEE 802.3cd.

Product Highlights

In 100G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, the 100G SFP-DD 2 x 50G PAM4 Passive DAC, 0.5m (2ft) provides a factory terminated 100Gbps link between SFP-DD to SFP-DD ports. This unit is available in 4 standard lengths from 0.5m (2ft) to 3m (10ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. Custom labeling, packaging and compatibility coding for specific equipment vendors are available from our factory on request. The link runs 2x 50G-PAM4 modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 100G switch silicon.

Compliance: SFP-DD MSA, SFP-DD MIS, IEEE 802.3cd. Every unit's EEPROM coding and link behavior are verified on real host equipment in our lab, so what arrives at your site is ready to use.

The standard part number of this assembly is SDD-100G-PC005. We supply this cable in 0.5m (2ft), 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft) and 3m (10ft). Custom lengths beyond this range can also be produced on request. Wire gauge: 30AWG.

Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.

Standard packing is an anti-static bag plus blister protection, with cartons sized to keep products from moving in transit. We apply our standard labels by default; neutral packing or customer-branded labels, part number stickers and serial barcodes are all available on request.

Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.

Most orders travel by international express and arrive within days; palletized freight by air or sea is used for volume orders. If you prefer, we ship on your DHL, UPS or FedEx account, or deliver to your appointed agent in China for onward consolidation.
