100G SFP-DD 2 x 50G PAM4 to QSFP56 2 x 50G PAM4 Passive DAC, 0.5m (2ft)
The 100G SFP-DD 2 x 50G PAM4 to QSFP56 2 x 50G PAM4 Passive DAC, 0.5m (2ft) is a passive twinax direct attach copper cable with SFP-DD to QSFP56, supporting 100Gbps links over a length of 0.5m (2ft). As a passive cable it draws essentially no power and adds no latency to the link. It is a cost effective, low latency interconnect for 100G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments, and complies with SFPDD: SFP-DD MSA, SFP-DD MIS, IEEE 802.3cdQSFP56: SFF-8661, SFF-8636, IEEE 802.3cd.

Applications
The 100G SFP-DD 2 x 50G PAM4 to QSFP56 2 x 50G PAM4 Passive DAC, 0.5m (2ft) connects SFP-DD to QSFP56 ports at 100Gbps in 100G Ethernet data center and enterprise network environments. This unit is delivered in 4 standard lengths from 0.5m (2ft) to 3m (10ft). Because the assembly is factory terminated and tested as a complete link, installation is plug and play on both ends. 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
Standards compliance covers SFPDD: SFP-DD MSA, SFP-DD MIS, IEEE 802.3cdQSFP56: SFF-8661, SFF-8636, IEEE 802.3cd. The unit works in any equipment with a standard SFP-DD to QSFP56 interface; if your network uses a specific vendor's coding, tell us the switch model and we will program and verify it before delivery.
Ordering Information
The ordering part number is SDD-100G-QPC005. 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.
Reliability Control
From incoming component inspection to final burn-in, quality is controlled at each step of production. Finished units are verified on real networking equipment in our compatibility lab, and test records are kept per batch so that any field question can be traced back quickly.
How We Pack
Transceivers and cables are individually protected against static and dust, then consolidated into sturdy cartons suitable for international courier shipment. For larger orders we shrink-wrap and strap cartons onto pallets. Tell us your warehouse or retail requirements and we will pack accordingly.
Factory Custom Capability
Working directly with the manufacturer means no middleman limits. We support OEM and ODM projects, custom cable assemblies, alternative packaging and compatibility coding for major equipment vendors, with engineering support from the same team that designs our standard products.
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.
