200G QSFP-DD Passive Copper Cable Assemblies
QSFP-DD(Double-Density) passive copper cable assemblies double the number of high 25G/lane NRZ and 50G/lane PAM4 when compared to the existing 100G QSFP cabling systems from 4 to 8 lanes. The QSFP-DD cables enable 200G or 400G in application lengths from 0.5 meter up to and including 2.5 meter in lengths.
