Applications
Designed for 200G Ethernet data center and cloud network environments, the 200G QSFP56 ACxxx Active DAC Cable carries 200Gbps between QSFP56 to QSFP56 interfaces. Ordered in customized lengths, it matches the actual rack geometry without slack. 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.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with IEEE 802.3cd, SFF-8665, SFF-8679, SFF-8636. It plugs into any standards-based QSFP56 to QSFP56 port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.
Ordering Information
This cable is built to order in customized lengths. Our part number QSFP-200G-ACxxx identifies the configuration. Wire gauge follows the length: 30AWG for 3m, 28AWG for 4,5m, 26AWG for 7m. When placing an order, tell us the length you need and any label or packaging requirements. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Customization Service
Because we are the factory, customization is straightforward: non-standard lengths, different jacket materials, specific polarity or breakout wiring, and compatibility programming for particular switch brands are all routine work for us. Small trial orders are accepted so you can verify quality before scaling up.
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.
Our Testing Process
Production samples and every outgoing batch pass through bit-error-rate measurement, temperature verification and plug-in compatibility checks on mainstream switches and routers. Because we are the manufacturer, any issue found in testing is fed back to the production line immediately instead of being passed on to customers.
Package
Products are first packed into blister trays or self-sealed bags and then into cartons. Standard labels and marks are applied by default, and customized packing and labeling are available on request.
