The NVIDIA InfiniBand Compatible 200G QSFP56 Active DAC Cable provides a 200Gbps copper connection between QSFP56 to QSFP56 ports with a cable length of 3m (10ft). Active electronics inside the connectors extend the usable reach compared with passive copper while keeping power draw low. Direct attach copper keeps both latency and power consumption to a minimum, which makes it the economical choice for InfiniBand HDR fabrics, HPC clusters and AI computing networks.

Applications
The NVIDIA InfiniBand Compatible 200G QSFP56 Active DAC Cable connects QSFP56 to QSFP56 ports at 200Gbps in InfiniBand HDR fabrics, HPC clusters and AI computing networks. This unit is produced in 4 standard lengths from 3m (10ft) to 7m (23ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. For networks standardized on NVIDIA/Mellanox InfiniBand hardware, it is a drop-in equivalent of the MCA1J00-H003E.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with IEEE 802.3cd, SFF-8665, QSFP MSA, SFF-8679, SFF-8636, InfiniBand HDR. It is interoperable with NVIDIA/Mellanox InfiniBand equipment and serves as a direct equivalent to the NVIDIA/Mellanox InfiniBand part number MCA1J00-H003E.
Ordering Information
The factory part number is QSFP-200G-AC. This cable is available in 3m (10ft), 4m (13ft), 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
