Applications
In 200G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the 200G QSFP56 ACxxx Active DAC Cable provides a factory terminated 200Gbps link between QSFP56 to QSFP56 ports. Ordered in customized lengths, it matches the actual rack geometry without slack. It installs directly into standard ports with no separate transceivers or patch cords to manage at either end. Custom labeling, packaging and compatibility coding for specific equipment vendors are available from our factory on request.
Standards and Compatibility
Standards compliance covers IEEE 802.3cd, SFF-8665, SFF-8679, SFF-8636. The unit works in any equipment with a standard QSFP56 to QSFP56 interface; if your network uses a specific vendor's coding, tell us the switch model and we will program and verify it before delivery.
Ordering Information
This cable is built to order in customized lengths. Our part number QSFP-200G-ACxxx identifies the configuration. Wire gauge follows the length: 30AWG for 3m, 28AWG for 4,5m, 26AWG for 7m. When placing an order, tell us the length you need and any label or packaging requirements. Volume pricing is available for project quantities.
Factory Custom Capability
Working directly with the manufacturer means no middleman limits. We support OEM and ODM projects, custom cable assemblies, alternative packaging and compatibility coding for major equipment vendors, with engineering support from the same team that designs our standard products.
Worldwide Delivery
We ship to customers around the world every week. Express couriers handle most orders door to door in a few days; larger consignments go by air or sea to keep freight costs down. Tracking information is provided for every shipment, and we are flexible on shipping accounts and forwarders.
Reliability Control
From incoming component inspection to final burn-in, quality is controlled at each step of production. Finished units are verified on real networking equipment in our compatibility lab, and test records are kept per batch so that any field question can be traced back quickly.
Packaging
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.
