FAQ

What is the breakout configuration?

The cable connects one 200G QSFP-DD interface to four independent 50G SFP-DD interfaces, enabling a single 200G port to connect directly with four 50G devices.

What is the maximum data rate?

The cable supports an aggregate data rate of up to 206.25Gbps, with each optical lane supporting up to 25.78125Gbps.

What is the maximum transmission distance?

The AOC supports up to 70 meters over OM3 multimode fiber, making it suitable for short-range data center connections.

What is the benefit of integrated CDR and DDM/DOM?

Integrated CDR helps maintain signal integrity for high-speed transmission, while DDM/DOM enables monitoring of key operating parameters and link conditions.

Why use this AOC instead of separate optical modules and patch cables?

The optical interfaces and fiber are integrated into a single cable assembly, reducing the number of components required and simplifying installation, cable management, and 200G-to-4×50G breakout deployment.
