Signal and Lane Configuration

The listed modulation format is SFP-DD-2x 50G-PAM4QSFP56-2x 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.

Network and Protocol Considerations

The intended application is 100G Ethernet, 128G Fibre Channel. Listed interface and protocol references include SFPDD: SFP-DD MSA, SFP-DD MIS, IEEE 802.3cdQSFP56: SFF-8661, SFF-8636, IEEE 802.3cd. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

Passive Copper Operation

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.

Length Selection and Installation Planning

SFP-DD to QSFP56-100G-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.

Position Within the Length Range

SFP-DD to QSFP56-100G-DAC-2M7FT occupies the middle of this family between SFP-DD to QSFP56-100G-DAC-1M3FT at 1m (3ft) and SFP-DD to QSFP56-100G-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.

Power and Thermal Planning

The rated power consumption is 0.1W. 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.

Cable Construction and Routing

This assembly uses 28AWG conductors, PVC (OFNR) jacket, minimum bend radius 17mm. 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.

Generic Compatibility and Factory Testing

Compatibility is more than matching the SFP-DD to QSFP56 shape. This assembly is prepared for hosts expecting SFP-DD to QSFP56-100G-DAC-2M7FT and is checked for identification, stable link behavior and electrical continuity, link stability and diagnostic readouts. We recommend confirming the equipment model and software release for critical deployments or mixed-vendor installations.

Ordering Information

This product is ordered as SFP-DD to QSFP56-100G-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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this an original equipment manufacturer cable?

No. It is manufactured by HT under our own manufacturer identity.

What information should I provide for a compatibility check?

Provide the host manufacturer, equipment model, port type, hardware revision and software release, together with the OEM part number and required quantity.

Does this page include more than one cable length?

No. This page is dedicated to 2m (7ft) and part number SFP-DD to QSFP56-100G-DAC-2M7FT. Other lengths have their own part numbers and product pages.

Are separate optical modules required?

No. The connectors and cable form one complete direct-attach assembly. Do not attempt to detach or replace either end.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Before packing, our team checks the cable jacket, connector boots, latches and identification of each assembly. The cable is then secured in a loose coil and protected against dust and connector impact. Neutral packaging, customer part-number labels and project-specific carton lists can be supplied on request.

Shipping and Lead Time

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.
