Applications
The 400G OSFP IHS/Finned Top to 4 x 100G QSFP56 Passive Copper Breakout DAC Cable is a 400Gbps direct attach copper cable for OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 4x QSFP56 connections in 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments. The breakout design lets one high speed port feed 4x QSFP56, which raises port utilization and simplifies cabling in dense rows. Custom labeling, packaging and compatibility coding for specific equipment vendors are available from our factory on request.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with OSFP MSA, IEEE 802.3cd, CMIS v4.0. It plugs into any standards-based OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 4x 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-4QPCxxx. Other lengths of the same assembly can be produced on request. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Delivery
Goods are normally sent by courier such as DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS; air and sea freight are also available on request. Commonly used items are kept in stock for immediate shipment, and out-of-stock items are usually delivered within a few working days. We can also ship on your courier account or hand goods to your appointed forwarder.
Quality Assurance
Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.
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.
OEM and Custom Orders
We have manufactured fiber optic connectivity products since 1995 and run our own production lines in Shenzhen. Beyond the standard catalog we build to order: special cable lengths, custom connector combinations, vendor-specific compatibility coding and private labeling. Send us your requirement and our engineers will quote a practical solution.
