Overview
The OL-50-QD-2Q-XXX is a 400G / 2×200G active optical cable in QSFP-DD to 2×QSFP112 form factor, available in lengths from 3m – 100m. Linear Direct Drive active optical cables combining low power consumption with exceptional signal integrity up to 100m. Available in DSP and LPO architectures for maximum deployment flexibility.
Highlights
Low Power — 4.5W per End
Linear Direct Drive architecture eliminates DSP overhead, keeping power to 4.5W per end.
Up to 100m Reach
BERT 1E-8 or better performance across the full 100m range.
112Gbps PAM4 per Channel
High-density bandwidth delivery for 400G and 800G deployments.
LPO & DSP Options
Choose LPO for lower power and cost, or DSP for maximum signal conditioning.
Broad Interoperability
Validated inter-op with Broadcom and Mellanox/NVIDIA NICs and switches.
Multiple Form Factors
OSFP, QSFP-DD, QSFP112, QSFP56 — and breakout variants (1×800G to 2×400G etc.).
