The 400G QSFP-DD 8x 50G PAM4 to 4x 100G QSFP56 2x 50G PAM4 Passive Breakout DAC Cable, 2m is a 400Gbps direct attach copper cable for QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP56 connections in 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments. This unit is provided in 6 standard lengths from 0.5m (2ft) to 3m (10ft). The breakout design lets one high speed port feed 4x QSFP56, which raises port utilization and simplifies cabling in dense rows. Custom labeling, packaging and compatibility coding for specific equipment vendors are available from our factory on request. The link runs QSFP-DD-8x 50G-PAM4 QSFP56-2x 50G-PAM4 modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 400G switch silicon.

This product is designed and tested to comply with SFF-8665, QSFP-DD MSA, IEEE802.3bj, IEEE802.3 cd. It plugs into any standards-based QSFP-DD to 4x QSFP56 port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.

This assembly is listed under part number QDD-400G-4QPC. The cable is supplied in 0.5m (2ft), 1m (3ft), 1.5m (5ft), 2m (7ft), 2.5m (8ft) and 3m (10ft). Custom lengths beyond the standard range are available on request. Wire gauge: 28AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.

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.

Goods are normally sent by courier such as DHL, UPS, FedEx, TNT or EMS; air and sea freight are also available on request. Commonly used items are kept in stock for immediate shipment, and out-of-stock items are usually delivered within a few working days. We can also ship on your courier account or hand goods to your appointed forwarder.

We do not ship untested stock. Each transceiver and cable is powered up in our test racks, checked for link stability, transmit power, receiver sensitivity and diagnostic readouts, and only then packed for delivery. This factory-level testing is one reason network integrators keep reordering from us year after year.

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.
