Applications
Designed for 200G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the NVIDIA InfiniBand Compatible 200G QSFP56 4x 50G PAM4 to 2x 100G QSFP56 2x 50G PAM4 InfiniBand HDR Active Breakout DAC Cable, 3m carries 200Gbps between QSFP56 to 2x QSFP56 interfaces. This unit is produced in 3 standard lengths from 3m (10ft) to 7m (23ft). The breakout design lets one high speed port feed 2x QSFP56, which raises port utilization and simplifies cabling in dense rows. It is interoperable with NVIDIA/Mellanox Ethernet platforms and replaces the NVIDIA/Mellanox Ethernet part MCA7J50-H003R directly.
Standards and Compatibility
On the compatibility side, this unit is the practical equivalent of the NVIDIA/Mellanox Ethernet part MCA7J50-H003R and works in NVIDIA/Mellanox Ethernet systems out of the box. Standards compliance covers IEEE 802.3cd, SFF-8665, QSFP MSA, SFF-8679, SFF-8636, InfiniBand HDR.
Ordering Information
The factory part number is QSFP-200G-2QAC. This cable is available in 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft) and 7m (23ft). Lengths outside the standard range are made to order in our factory. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Volume pricing is available for project quantities.
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.
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.
