QSFP56 – QSFP56 DAC 200GE 0.5m-3.0m
A passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC) for 200G Ethernet or Infiniband applications
Product information
The DQ5001-xxxC-SO is an Passive Direct Attach Cable (DAC) solution of Twinax type, i.e. a copper cable similar to coaxial cable, but with two inner conductors instead of one. DQ5001-xxxC-SO is a solution for 200Gbps connections within racks and across adjacent racks where the interconnected equipment uses QSFP56 interfaces. It provides a cost-efficient solution as compared to using optical transceivers and it simplifies the patching since no separate transmit/receive direction has to be taken into account.
A DQ5001-xxxC-SO fits into QSFP56 ports and is intended for 200Gbps Ethernet and 200G HDR InfiniBand services.
The DQ5001-xxxC-SO is provided in lengths from 0.5 to 3 meters (1.6 to 16.4 ft).
The thickness of the cable is defined by the AWG (American Wire Gauge) rating value. As an example, an AWG26 DAC cable is thicker and heavier than the AWG30.
