In 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the 400G QSFP112 Active DAC Cable, 3m provides a factory terminated 425Gbps link between QSFP112 ports. This unit is provided 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.
Compliance: QSFP112 MSA, SFF-8636. 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.
This assembly is listed under part number QSFP-400G-AC. The cable is supplied in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft) and 3m (10ft). Custom lengths beyond the standard range are available on request. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
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.
Most orders travel by international express and arrive within days; palletized freight by air or sea is used for volume orders. If you prefer, we ship on your DHL, UPS or FedEx account, or deliver to your appointed agent in China for onward consolidation.
Before any product leaves our factory it goes through optical performance testing, compatibility verification on real switch platforms and a final visual inspection. Our in-house test lab holds a wide range of current and legacy switches from major brands, so interoperability is proven on the actual equipment your network uses rather than assumed from paper specifications.
Transceivers and cables are individually protected against static and dust, then consolidated into sturdy cartons suitable for international courier shipment. For larger orders we shrink-wrap and strap cartons onto pallets. Tell us your warehouse or retail requirements and we will pack accordingly.
