## Summary description

Passive breakout direct-attach copper (DAC) cable from BlueOptics, converting one QSFP-DD port to two QSFP56 ports. Model BL290701X2M26 is listed as compatible with part number 980-9IA3V-00W01A and intended for high-density server and switch interconnects where QSFP-DD to QSFP56 breakout is required. Use for short-reach, low-latency connections in data centers and aggregation racks.

## Long description

BlueOptics breakout DAC cable QSFP-DD to 2×QSFP56 model BL290701X2M26 is a passive direct-attach copper cable designed to split one QSFP-DD interface into two independent QSFP56 ports. The cable provides a compact, low-power solution for short-reach interconnects inside racks and between adjacent racks, suitable for high-density server and switch environments that require QSFP-DD to QSFP56 breakout connectivity.
Advantages
The passive DAC design delivers low latency and predictable signal performance without the need for additional power or optics, reducing operational complexity and heat. Its QSFP-DD to dual QSFP56 breakout format enables higher port density on switches and servers while preserving bandwidth granularity. The cable is engineered for reliable short-range links and simple plug-and-play installation, minimizing deployment time in data center topologies.
Suitable for
High-density top-of-rack switch to server aggregation where QSFP-DD to QSFP56 breakout is required
Short-reach interconnects in data center racks and adjacent rack connections
Low-latency, high-throughput links within compute clusters and storage arrays
Hardware environments that require passive copper connections to reduce complexity and power consumption
Key specifications
Connector conversion: one QSFP-DD to two QSFP56 ports
Media: passive direct-attach copper (DAC)
Length: 2 meters
Use case: short-reach intra-rack and adjacent-rack links
Latency: passive copper for minimal added latency
Compatibility: designed to interface with QSFP-DD and QSFP56 host ports supporting breakout mode
How to use
Install the breakout DAC by inserting the QSFP-DD connector into the QSFP-DD host port on the switch or server and plugging the two QSFP56 connectors into the destination QSFP56 ports. Ensure both ends are fully seated and that devices are configured to support QSFP-DD to QSFP56 breakout mode if required by the host firmware. No external power or transceiver modules are necessary. Verify link status through the host device management interface after physical connection.
Usage recommendations
Use this passive DAC for short-distance links within racks or between immediately adjacent racks. Confirm that the switch or server firmware and port settings support QSFP-DD breakout to dual QSFP56; consult device documentation for breakout configuration and airflow considerations. Avoid routing near sources of strong electromagnetic interference and maintain proper bend radius to preserve signal integrity.
