400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 4x 100G QSFP56 2x 50G PAM4 Passive Breakout DAC Cable, 2m
The 400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 4x 100G QSFP56 2x 50G PAM4 Passive Breakout DAC Cable, 2m provides a 400Gbps copper connection between QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP56 ports with a cable length of 2m (7ft). As a passive cable it draws essentially no power and adds no latency to the link. 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.

Applications
In 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the 400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 4x 100G QSFP56 2x 50G PAM4 Passive Breakout DAC Cable, 2m provides a factory terminated 400Gbps link between QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP56 ports. This unit is made in 6 standard lengths from 0.5m (2ft) to 3m (10ft). The breakout design lets one high speed port feed 4x QSFP56, which raises port utilization and simplifies cabling in dense rows. Our factory programs the compatibility coding for your switch brand before shipment and verifies each unit on real host equipment.
Standards and Compatibility
Compliance: SFF-8665, QSFP-DD MSA, IEEE802.3bj, IEEE802.3 cd. 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.
Ordering Information
The part number for this assembly is QDD-400G-4QPC. We offer this cable in 0.5m (2ft), 1m (3ft), 1.5m (5ft), 2m (7ft), 2.5m (8ft) and 3m (10ft). Other lengths can be custom manufactured on request. Wire gauge: 28AWG. Volume pricing is available for project quantities.
Packaging Options
Default packaging is simple and protective: sealed bag, blister tray, export carton. For OEM customers we also offer white-label packing, custom printed boxes and per-unit labeling with your own part numbers, so the goods can go straight into your sales channel.
Customization Service
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.
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.
Tested Before Shipment
We do not ship untested stock. Each transceiver and cable is powered up in our test racks, checked for link stability, transmit power, receiver sensitivity and diagnostic readouts, and only then packed for delivery. This factory-level testing is one reason network integrators keep reordering from us year after year.
