Specifications

Exact Length and Product Identity

This product page covers QDD-400G-AC05 in 5m (16ft). The OEM reference, physical length and HT factory configuration should remain together on the purchase order and receiving record. Other reaches or compatibility identities must be selected and verified separately rather than assumed to be interchangeable.

Cable Construction and Installation Planning

This 5m (16ft) active copper assembly connects compatible QSFP-DD ports without separate optical modules. Confirm the aggregate rate, lane configuration and host operating mode before installation. Support the complete twinax run, preserve connector access and do not crease the cable or force it into a tight service loop.

NVIDIA/Mellanox Compatibility and Factory Testing

Testing addresses the brand-specific identification as well as the operating link and available diagnostics. The same physical cable family can require a different host identity for another equipment vendor, so the intended platform should be supplied when a deployment combines multiple brands or unusual hardware revisions. Factory acceptance covers both connector housings, host identification, live-link stability and diagnostic indications where the platform exposes them. The assembly is checked as the exact active copper configuration and length listed here.

Mixed-Vendor Network Operation

A mixed-vendor link should be documented at both ends, not treated as one generic connection. Confirm which OEM identity each host expects and whether the two ends use the same compatibility requirement. The related brand links below help locate equivalent-length assemblies, while the physical form factor and lane arrangement must still agree across the complete path.

Ordering Information

For mixed-vendor projects, identify the equipment at both ends along with the OEM reference, length and quantity. Order each compatibility version under its own part number. If spare assemblies are required, list them separately so labels and test records remain unambiguous. This page describes QDD-400G-AC05 in 5m (16ft); quote this exact reference and length together with quantity and the intended host platform.

Shipping and Lead Time

Available stock is generally dispatched within one to three working days after order confirmation, with production lead times advised for larger quantities. International express, air cargo and sea freight can be selected according to destination and carton volume; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are also accepted.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Both ends are inspected and the complete assembly is powered up for a functional check before packing. Connectors are protected individually and the cable is secured without tight bends. Optional labels can distinguish host brand, OEM reference and length for easier spares management.
