Specifications

Signal and Lane Configuration

The listed modulation format is 8x 100G PAM4 to Dual 4x 100G PAM4. Both host interfaces must be configured for the same aggregate rate and lane arrangement. A connector that fits mechanically does not by itself guarantee that the remote port supports this encoding or breakout mode.

Cable Construction and Routing

This assembly uses 26AWG conductors, PVC jacket, minimum bend radius 45mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.

Network and Protocol Considerations

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include OSFP MSA, IEEE 802.3ck, CMIS v4.0. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

Breakout Port Mapping

The 800G OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 2× 400G OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) configuration divides the high-speed interface into multiple lower-speed connections. Verify the upstream lane assignment, downstream port speeds and breakout setting on the host before connecting the assembly. Each branch must attach to the correct remote interface.

Passive Copper Operation

A passive DAC has no separate optical conversion stage. Its low-power, low-latency operation is useful for short equipment links, but the assembly must remain within the length and signaling mode accepted by both hosts.

Length Selection and Installation Planning

At 3m (10ft), this assembly can bridge non-aligned ports or adjacent racks while remaining a single direct-attach link. Support longer horizontal runs with suitable cable management and preserve space for cooling and future maintenance.

Position Within the Length Range

800G OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 2× 400G OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-DAC-3M10FT is the longest of 3 verified length options in this family. Compared with 800G OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 2× 400G OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-DAC-2.5M8FT at 2.5m (8ft), it provides 0.5m of additional reach for a longer vertical drop, a wider rack or an adjacent-cabinet route. Confirm that the complete path requires this length, because unused slack still needs supported, bend-safe storage.

Procurement and Port-Mapping Review

A useful purchase order should identify the host platform, the expected OEM code and the exact cable length as separate pieces of information. This prevents a physically similar assembly from being substituted when the port identification or reach is different. For mixed-length installations, prepare one order line per part number and reconcile each delivered cable with its intended pair of ports. For this assembly, the listed conductor specification is 26AWG; the minimum bend radius is 45mm; the stated power consumption is 0.1W (800G End)0.1W (400G Per End); the jacket material is PVC.

Power and Thermal Planning

The rated power consumption is 0.1W (800G End)0.1W (400G Per End). Include this load in the host-port power and thermal budget, especially in densely populated switches. Maintain front-panel clearance and do not bundle the cable so tightly that it obstructs airflow around the connectors.

Generic Compatibility and Factory Testing

Our procurement-oriented compatibility check begins with the OEM reference and ends with a live host link. We record the physical length separately from the identification configuration, so the cable supplied for this page remains the stated version rather than a generic length substitute. The check includes link stability and diagnostic indications, followed by a final inspection of both ends.

Ordering Information

For a clear bill of materials, quote the OEM reference, HT part number, length and quantity on the same line. Add the switch or server model and software release when a pre-order review is required; project labels can repeat those details for receiving and installation teams. Keep 800G OSFP (IHS/Finned Top) to 2× 400G OSFP (IHS/Finned Top)-800G-DAC-3M10FT associated with 3m (10ft) throughout the order and receiving record.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Before packing, the assembly is checked for connector condition, identification and link operation. Cables for multi-line orders can be labelled and grouped by part number, making it easier to match each length to the procurement record without opening every protective bag. Volume orders can include customer references on the labels and carton list.
