400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 2x 200G QSFP56 4x 50G PAM4 Active Breakout DAC Cable

The 400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 2x 200G QSFP56 4x 50G PAM4 Active Breakout DAC Cable, 5m provides a 400Gbps copper connection between QSFP-DD to 2x QSFP56 ports with a cable length of 5m (16ft). Active electronics inside the connectors extend the usable reach compared with passive copper while keeping power draw low. Direct attach copper keeps both latency and power consumption to a minimum, which makes it the economical choice for 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments.

The 400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 2x 200G QSFP56 4x 50G PAM4 Active Breakout DAC Cable, 5m is a 400Gbps active copper cable for QSFP-DD to 2x QSFP56 connections in 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments. This unit is manufactured in 4 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 5m (16ft). The breakout design lets one high speed port feed 2x QSFP56, which raises port utilization and simplifies cabling in dense rows. If your project needs a specific vendor coding or custom label, our production line handles it as a routine step before packing.

This product is designed and tested to comply with QSFP-DD MSA, SFF-8636, SFF-8679. It plugs into any standards-based QSFP-DD to 2x QSFP56 port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.

Part number of this model: QDD-400G-2QAC. Length options are 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft) and 5m (16ft). Our factory also produces custom lengths beyond these on request. Wire gauge: 28AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.

Every unit we ship is tested in our own test bed on mainstream switch and transport platforms before packing. Our test center has been fully upgraded, which sets us apart from other third party product providers: 10G, 40G, 100G, 200G and 400G transceivers and direct attach cables are verified on the latest top brand equipment, including selected original switches that can hardly be found elsewhere.

Each unit is sealed in an anti-static bag, cushioned in a blister tray and boxed in an export-grade carton. Outer cartons carry handling marks and can be palletized for air or sea freight. If your project requires retail boxes, barcodes or your own brand on the label, we can arrange that as well.

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.

Standard products are held in stock and usually ship within one to three working days. We dispatch worldwide by DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS, and for bulk orders we arrange air or sea freight. Shipments can also be sent collect on your own courier account or delivered to your freight forwarder.
