The 400G QSFP-DD active optical cables are designed for use in 400 Gigabit Ethernet links over OM4 multimode fibers, and contain eight multi-mode fibers (MMF) optic transceivers per end, each operating at data rates of up to 53Gb/s. This active optical cable is compliant with IEEE 802.3cd, OIF-CEI-04.0, QSFP-DD MSA, and QSFP-DD-CMIS-rev4p0. Thin and lightweight AOC cables simplify cable management, enabling an efficient system airflow, which is critical in high-density racks. It is used extensively in cloud and supercomputers due to its low cost, high-value proposition, and increased reliability.
Note: The FS P/N is changed from QSFP-DD-AO100 to QDD-400G-AO100, but the product is the same. Only the FS P/N has been changed.
