Applications
In 200G Ethernet, data center interconnect and 5G transport networks, the 200G QSFP56 to 2 x 100G QSFP28 Active Optical Breakout AOC provides a factory terminated 200Gbps link between QSFP56 to 2x QSFP28 ports. Ordered in customized lengths, it matches the actual rack geometry without slack. One port becomes 2x QSFP28, a common pattern for connecting newer aggregation ports to an installed base of lower speed equipment. Custom labeling, packaging and compatibility coding for specific equipment vendors are available from our factory on request.
Standards and Compatibility
Compliance: IEEE 802.3cd-100GAUI-2, IEEE802.3bm-CAUI-4, IEEE 802.3cd, SFF-8661, SFP-8636, SFF-8636. 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
This cable is built to order in customized lengths. Our part number QSFP-200G-2Q4xNAOxxx identifies the configuration. When placing an order, tell us the length you need and any label or packaging requirements. Volume pricing is available for project quantities.
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.
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.
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.
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.
