400G QSFP-DD QDD AC Active DAC Cable, 5m

For short reach 425Gbps links in 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the 400G QSFP-DD QDD AC Active DAC Cable, 5m offers a factory terminated active twinax assembly with QSFP-DD connectors and a length of 5m (16ft). Active electronics inside the connectors extend the usable reach compared with passive copper while keeping power draw low. The cable meets QSFP-DD MSA, SFF-8636.

Applications
Designed for 400G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the 400G QSFP-DD QDD AC Active DAC Cable, 5m carries 425Gbps between QSFP-DD interfaces. This unit is delivered in 4 standard lengths from 1m (3ft) to 5m (16ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. If your project needs a specific vendor coding or custom label, our production line handles it as a routine step before packing.
Standards and Compatibility
Compliance: QSFP-DD 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.
Ordering Information
The ordering part number is QDD-400G-AC. We make this cable in 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft), 3m (10ft) and 5m (16ft). Special lengths outside this range can be produced to order. Wire gauge: 28AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Packaging
Each unit is sealed in an anti-static bag, cushioned in a blister tray and boxed in an export-grade carton. Outer cartons carry handling marks and can be palletized for air or sea freight. If your project requires retail boxes, barcodes or your own brand on the label, we can arrange that as well.
Custom-made Fiber Products
As a manufacturer serving the fiber optic industry since 1995, we have strong in-house manufacturing and design capability. From early GBIC, Xenpak and X2 modules to today's SFP, SFP+, QSFP, QSFP-DD and OSFP products, we grow together with the industry. OEM and custom-designed transceivers and cables are welcome, and our factory-direct pricing is very competitive compared with online retail stores.
How We Ship
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.
Tested Before Shipment
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.
