100G SFP-DD 2 x 50G PAM4 Passive DAC, 0.5m (2ft)

The 100G SFP-DD 2 x 50G PAM4 Passive DAC, 0.5m (2ft) provides a 100Gbps copper connection between SFP-DD to SFP-DD ports with a cable length of 0.5m (2ft). As a passive cable it draws essentially no power and adds no latency to the link. Direct attach copper keeps both latency and power consumption to a minimum, which makes it the economical choice for 100G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments.

Applications
Designed for 100G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, the 100G SFP-DD 2 x 50G PAM4 Passive DAC, 0.5m (2ft) carries 100Gbps between SFP-DD to SFP-DD interfaces. This unit is delivered in 4 standard lengths from 0.5m (2ft) to 3m (10ft). The integrated construction removes separate optics from the link budget and reduces the number of failure points in the row. Custom labeling, packaging and compatibility coding for specific equipment vendors are available from our factory on request. The link runs 2x 50G-PAM4 modulation, which keeps it aligned with current 100G switch silicon.
Standards and Compatibility
This product is designed and tested to comply with SFP-DD MSA, SFP-DD MIS, IEEE 802.3cd. It plugs into any standards-based SFP-DD to SFP-DD port, and compatibility coding for specific switch or router brands can be done in our factory before shipment.
Ordering Information
The ordering part number is SDD-100G-PC005. We make this cable in 0.5m (2ft), 1m (3ft), 2m (7ft) and 3m (10ft). Special lengths outside this range can be produced to order. Wire gauge: 30AWG. Samples for testing can be arranged before bulk orders.
Worldwide Delivery
We ship to customers around the world every week. Express couriers handle most orders door to door in a few days; larger consignments go by air or sea to keep freight costs down. Tracking information is provided for every shipment, and we are flexible on shipping accounts and forwarders.
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.
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.
Built to Your Spec
Our product line has grown with the industry for three decades, from GBIC-era modules to today's 800G and 1.6T interconnects. If the exact configuration you need is not listed, we can usually build it: custom lengths, mixed connector breakouts, OEM branding and project-specific firmware coding are all supported.
