Technical Specifications

FAQs

Q: What distance is supported?
A: This passive DAC is intended for short distances; the 2 m length is suitable for in-rack or adjacent-rack connections, subject to platform SI limits.

Q: Are optics or transceivers required?
A: No. The OSFP and QSFP56 ends are integrated; it is a direct-attach copper assembly.

Q: Is it multi-vendor compatible?
A: It complies with Ethernet CR standards, but some vendors enforce coding. Confirm compatibility with your specific switch/NIC.

Q: Does it require FEC?
A: Host platforms typically enable the appropriate FEC for CR links automatically. No configuration is needed on the cable.
