The 400G QSFP112 Active DAC Cable, 3m provides a 425Gbps copper connection between QSFP112 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 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments.

Applications
In 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the 400G QSFP112 Active DAC Cable, 3m provides a factory terminated 425Gbps link between QSFP112 ports. This unit is produced in 3 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 3m (10ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. If your project needs a specific vendor coding or custom label, our production line handles it as a routine step before packing.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with QSFP112 MSA, SFF-8636. It plugs into any standards-based QSFP112 port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.
Ordering Information
The factory part number is QSFP-400G-AC. This cable is available in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft) and 3m (10ft). Lengths outside the standard range are made to order in our factory. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Our Testing Process
Production samples and every outgoing batch pass through bit-error-rate measurement, temperature verification and plug-in compatibility checks on mainstream switches and routers. Because we are the manufacturer, any issue found in testing is fed back to the production line immediately instead of being passed on to customers.
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.
Factory Custom Capability
Working directly with the manufacturer means no middleman limits. We support OEM and ODM projects, custom cable assemblies, alternative packaging and compatibility coding for major equipment vendors, with engineering support from the same team that designs our standard products.
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.
