Applications
The 400G QSFP-DD QDD PCxxx Passive DAC is a 400Gbps direct attach copper cable for QSFP-DD to QSFP-DD connections in 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments. Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. 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 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
This model is supplied at standard length under part number QDD-400G-PCxxx. Other lengths of the same assembly can be produced on request. Wire gauge: 30AWG for 0.5/1/1.5m, 28AWG for 2m, 26AWG for 2.5/3m.
Quality and Testing
Every unit we ship is tested in our own test bed on mainstream switch and transport platforms before packing. Our test center has been fully upgraded, which sets us apart from other third party product providers: 10G, 40G, 100G, 200G and 400G transceivers and direct attach cables are verified on the latest top brand equipment, including selected original switches that can hardly be found elsewhere.
Packing Details
Standard packing is an anti-static bag plus blister protection, with cartons sized to keep products from moving in transit. We apply our standard labels by default; neutral packing or customer-branded labels, part number stickers and serial barcodes are all available on request.
Custom-made Fiber Products
As a manufacturer serving the fiber optic industry since 1995, we have strong in-house manufacturing and design capability. From early GBIC, Xenpak and X2 modules to today's SFP, SFP+, QSFP, QSFP-DD and OSFP products, we grow together with the industry. OEM and custom-designed transceivers and cables are welcome, and our factory-direct pricing is very competitive compared with online retail stores.
