The NVIDIA InfiniBand Compatible 400G QSFP112 AO AOC is an active optical cable assembly with QSFP112 to QSFP112, carrying 400Gbps over AOC at 850nm. Factory terminated and tested as a complete link, it offers a lighter and more flexible alternative to discrete transceivers with patch cords for 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments. The standard length range runs from 1m (3ft) to 30m (98ft).

Applications
Designed for 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the NVIDIA InfiniBand Compatible 400G QSFP112 AO AOC carries 400Gbps between QSFP112 to QSFP112 interfaces. This unit is produced in 9 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 30m (98ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. Custom labeling, packaging and compatibility coding for specific equipment vendors are available from our factory on request. The link runs 4x 100G-PAM4 modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 400G switch silicon.
Standards and Compatibility
Compliance: CMIS 4.0, IEEE 802.3 ck-400GAUI-4, QSFP112 MSA. 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
The factory part number is QSFP-400G-AO. This cable is available in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft), 5m (16ft), 7m (23ft), 10m (33ft), 15m (49ft), 20m (66ft) and 30m (98ft). Lengths outside the standard range are made to order in our factory.
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.
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.
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.
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.
