400G QSFP-DD QDD PCxxx Passive DAC

The 400G QSFP-DD QDD PCxxx Passive DAC is a passive copper cable direct attach copper cable with QSFP-DD to QSFP-DD, supporting 400Gbps links over a length of customized length. 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 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, and complies with industry MSA standards.

Applications
The 400G QSFP-DD QDD PCxxx Passive DAC connects QSFP-DD to QSFP-DD ports at 400Gbps in 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments. It installs directly into standard ports with no separate transceivers or patch cords to manage at either end. If your project needs a specific vendor coding or custom label, our production line handles it as a routine step before packing. The link runs 8x 50G PAM4 modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 400G switch silicon.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with industry MSA standards. It plugs into any standards-based QSFP-DD to QSFP-DD port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.
Ordering Information
