QSFP28/56 PASSIVE COPPER CABLE ASSEMBLIES

DATA AND DEVICES /// QSFP28/56 PASSIVE COPPER CABLE ASSEMBLIES

Our signal integrity (SI) and system architecture expertise allow us to provide one of the highest performing portfolios of 25 Gbps QSFP28 and 56 Gbps QSFP56 cable assemblies in the market. These cable assemblies support aggregate data rates of 100 and 200 Gbps.

Adhering to the industry standard, these cable assemblies are backwards compatible with existing QSFP+ connectors and cages, allowing for easy system upgrades. QSFP28/56 can be used with current 10G and 14G applications with substantial signal integrity margin. Optimized construction of the plug and cable minimizes insertion loss and crosstalk for improved performance over previous designs.

Not only do we offer these 25 and 56 Gbps cable assemblies, but we also provide one of the largest portfolios of zQSFP+ connectors, cages and accessories so you can get the full solution in one place for your high speed application.
