BlueLAN NVIDIA Cable DAC breakout 400G QSFP-DD compatible 1m cobre pasivo 400GBASE-CR8 a 2x200GBASE-CR4 QSFP56

The BlueLAN 980-9IA3S-00W001-BL is a high-performance passive copper Direct Attach Cable (DAC) designed for breakout applications in modern data centers. It connects a 400GBASE-CR8 QSFP-DD port to two 200GBASE-CR4 QSFP56 ports, enabling efficient aggregation and flexible network architecture. With a length of 1 meter and ultra-low power consumption, this cable is ideal for short-reach, high-speed interconnects within racks.

Advantages

This breakout cable offers a cost-effective and power-efficient solution for splitting a 400G link into two 200G links, maximizing port utilization and reducing cabling complexity. The passive copper design ensures zero power consumption and minimal latency, while the robust construction guarantees reliable signal integrity. Compatibility with NVIDIA (Mellanox) equipment ensures seamless integration into existing infrastructures.
