Description
The AddOn Q400G-4Q56G-AOC10M-AO is a MSA and TAA compliant 400GBase Active Optical Cable designed for high-speed interconnects in modern data centers. This QSFP-DD to 4xQSFP56 PAM4 AOC operates over multi-mode fiber (MMF) with a maximum reach of 10 meters, delivering exceptional performance for 400G Ethernet connectivity between switches, servers, storage systems, and network adapters.
Featuring low-latency, DSP-free CDR electronics and PAM4 modulation, it supports data rates up to 56.15 Gb/s per lane with minimal power consumption — 7.6W on the 400G end and 2.3W on the 100G ends. Built to meet CMIS 4.0, IEEE 802.3cm, and QSFP-DD MSA standards, this hot-pluggable, LSZH-rated cable ensures reliable, high-density connectivity while complying with TAA trade requirements. Each unit is programmed, uniquely serialized, and rigorously tested for full interoperability and performance, backed by AddOn’s limited lifetime warranty.
