Applications
Designed for 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the 400G QSFP112 PCxxx Passive DAC carries 400Gbps between QSFP 112 to QSFP 112 interfaces. This unit is supplied at 0.5-1.5m (2ft-5ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. Compatibility with systems is verified in our own test lab before shipment, so the unit works out of the box as an equivalent of Generic.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with industry MSA standards. It is interoperable with equipment and serves as a direct equivalent to the part number Generic.
Ordering Information
This model is supplied at 0.5-1.5m (2ft-5ft) under part number QSFP-400G-PCxxx. Other lengths of the same assembly can be produced on request. Wire gauge: 26~30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
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.
Logistics
Our warehouse keeps fast-moving transceivers and cables ready for same-week dispatch. Courier, air freight and sea freight options are all available depending on your budget and schedule, and we consolidate multiple items into one shipment whenever it saves you cost.
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.
