Advantages
This passive direct attach copper cable offers a highly efficient alternative to active optical solutions for short-range connections. By eliminating the need for additional power, it significantly reduces overall power consumption and lowers EMI emissions within the rack. The cable is engineered for durability and consistent performance, undergoing rigorous testing to ensure it meets the high standards required for enterprise-grade networking infrastructure.
Suitable for
High-performance computing clusters
Data center inter-rack connectivity
InfiniBand HDR 200Gb/s network environments
Short-distance server-to-switch connections
When it may not be suitable
This cable is not intended for long-distance networking applications, as passive copper technology is limited by signal attenuation over extended lengths. It is also not compatible with hardware interfaces other than QSFP56 ports.
Key specifications
Cable length: 2 meters
Connector type: QSFP56 to QSFP56
Data rate: 200Gb/s
Technology: Passive copper (DAC)
Jacket material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)
Color: Black
How to use
To install the cable, ensure that both network devices are powered down or follow the hot-swap procedures specified by your hardware manufacturer. Align the QSFP56 connector with the port on your switch or server, ensuring the orientation is correct. Push the connector firmly into the port until the locking mechanism clicks into place. To remove the cable, pull the release tab on the connector housing gently to disengage the lock before sliding it out of the port.
What to consider before purchase
Verify that your networking equipment supports QSFP56 interfaces.
Ensure the 2-meter length is sufficient for your specific rack layout.
Confirm that your system architecture is compatible with passive copper DAC technology.
Usage recommendations: Handle the cable with care by avoiding sharp bends or excessive tension near the connector heads to maintain signal integrity and prevent physical damage to the internal wiring.
