The NVIDIA InfiniBand Compatible 400G QSFP112 AE AEC connects QSFP112 to QSFP112 ports at 400Gbps over Active DAC (AEC) fiber at 850nm. Because the optics are built into the cable ends, installation is plug and play with no separate transceivers to manage, and airflow inside the rack stays unobstructed. It is well suited to 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments. The standard length range runs from 1m (3ft) to 3m (10ft).

Applications
In 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the NVIDIA InfiniBand Compatible 400G QSFP112 AE AEC provides a factory terminated 400Gbps link between QSFP112 to 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. Our factory programs the compatibility coding for your switch brand before shipment and verifies each unit on real host equipment.
Standards and Compatibility
Standards compliance covers QSFP112 MSA, IEEE 802.3ck 400GBase-CR4, CMIS 5.0. The unit works in any equipment with a standard QSFP112 to QSFP112 interface; if your network uses a specific vendor's coding, tell us the switch model and we will program and verify it before delivery.
Ordering Information
The factory part number is QSFP-400G-AE. 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: 32AWG.
Package
Products are first packed into blister trays or self-sealed bags and then into cartons. Standard labels and marks are applied by default, and customized packing and labeling are available on request.
Customization Service
Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.
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.
Reliability Control
From incoming component inspection to final burn-in, quality is controlled at each step of production. Finished units are verified on real networking equipment in our compatibility lab, and test records are kept per batch so that any field question can be traced back quickly.
