Applications
The 400G OSFP IHS/Finned Top to 2 x 200G QSFP56 Passive Copper Breakout DAC Cable connects OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 2x QSFP56 ports at 400Gbps in 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments. 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.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with OSFP MSA, CMISRev4.0, IEEE802.3cd, SFF-8436, SFF-8665, SFF-8679, SFF-8636. It plugs into any standards-based OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 2x QSFP56 port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.
Ordering Information
This model is supplied at standard length under part number OSFP-400G-2QPCxxx. Other lengths of the same assembly can be produced on request. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Shipping and Lead Time
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.
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.
How We Pack
Transceivers and cables are individually protected against static and dust, then consolidated into sturdy cartons suitable for international courier shipment. For larger orders we shrink-wrap and strap cartons onto pallets. Tell us your warehouse or retail requirements and we will pack accordingly.
Built to Your Spec
Our product line has grown with the industry for three decades, from GBIC-era modules to today's 800G and 1.6T interconnects. If the exact configuration you need is not listed, we can usually build it: custom lengths, mixed connector breakouts, OEM branding and project-specific firmware coding are all supported.
