ADDON Arista Networks CAB-D-4Q-200G-2.5M TAA Compliant 200GBase-CU QSFP-DD to 4xQSFP28 Copper Direct Attach Cable

AddOn Arista Networks® CAB-D-4Q-200G-2-5M Compatible TAA Compliant 200GBase-CU QSFP-DD 200G to 4xQSFP28 50G NRZ Direct Attach Cable (Passive Twinax, 2.5m)

The ADDON Arista Networks CAB-D-4Q-200G-2.5M is a high-performance, TAA-compliant direct attach copper cable designed for data centers and high-speed networking environments. This cable features a passive copper design with a maximum reach of 2.5 meters (8.2 feet), making it ideal for connecting QSFP-DD switches to multiple QSFP28 ports. Built with premium copper conductors and a robust PVC jacket, it ensures reliable signal integrity and durability during intensive data traffic. The cable’s design supports aggregate data rates of up to 200Gbps, complying with industry standards such as IEEE 802.3bj, IEEE 802.3by, and IEEE 802.3cd, providing versatile compatibility across numerous network infrastructures. Its SFF-8679 electrical interface and SFF-8636 management interface support facilitate seamless integration with compatible hardware, while the I2C communication protocol enables efficient EEPROM management. The pull-to-release slide latch enhances ease of installation and removal, reducing downtime and maintenance efforts. The cable features a 28AWG through 32AWG gauge, which contributes to excellent EMI and EMC performance, thanks to 360-degree shield termination that minimizes interference and crosstalk. Automated pre-solder assembly technology on both sides of the cable ensures consistent quality and durability, backed by a limited lifetime warranty from AddOn. Fully TAA compliant, this cable meets strict trade agreement standards, making it suitable for government and enterprise applications. Whether deploying new network hardware or upgrading existing infrastructure, the ADDON Arista Networks twinaxial cable offers a reliable, high-speed solution that combines industry compliance with robust design features.
