Available Lengths and Corresponding Part Numbers

The documented series configuration is 3m (10ft) and 5m (16ft). Use the relevant OEM reference below together with the HT identity and required length when requesting a quotation. If another length carries a different OEM part number, it must be reviewed and ordered as that distinct configuration.

Specifications

Applications and Deployment

An AOC removes the separate module-and-fiber interfaces from a high-speed connection. Both optical ends remain attached to the cable, simplifying polarity control and connector handling. Host identification, wavelength plan, aggregate rate and any breakout configuration must still agree across the link. For this series, the listed interface is QSFP112 to QSFP-DD and the aggregate rate is 400G.

Cable Construction and Routing

The specification table records the jacket material is OFNP; the minimum bend radius is 30mm; the power consumption is 10W (QSFP112 End) 14W (QSFP-DD End). Use those values when preparing the rack pathway and receiving checklist. Do not pull a connector by its cable, compress the run under tight ties or force excess length into a sharp coil. Connector protection should remain in place until the assembly is ready for insertion.

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 series, keep the interface rate, AOC construction and length-specific OEM reference together throughout that review.

Juniper Networks 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. Series-level inspection is followed by the exact length and OEM configuration selected for dispatch. Functional verification includes link establishment and diagnostic indications where the host exposes them.

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. For this series, follow the corresponding length link, quote that exact OEM part number and keep different lengths on separate order lines. HT part number QSFP-400G-QDDAO identifies the product family; the linked page provides the final length-specific identity.

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. Both connector ends are inspected as part of the complete assembly, and protective packing is selected to avoid tight bends during transport and storage.

Shipping and Lead Time

Standard configurations normally ship within one to three working days, with production lead times confirmed for larger quantities. International courier, air freight and sea freight are available; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are accepted.
