This is a genuine Credo HiWire 400 Gigabit (8x56G) QSFP-DD PAM4 to 400 Gigabit (8x56G) QSFP-DD PAM4 Active Electrical Cable (AEC), 3.0 Meter (P/N: CAC43X321D1D-D0-HW). Credo's pioneering HiWire AECs are a high-performance interconnect solution engineered to meet the extreme demands of modern data centers, cloud infrastructure, and enterprise networks. This 3.0-meter AEC features QSFP-DD (Quad Small Form-Factor Pluggable Double Density) connectors on both ends, transmitting 400 Gigabit Ethernet over 8 lanes at 56Gbps using advanced PAM4 signaling. It provides a significant advantage over passive Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cables by extending reach and improving signal integrity, while offering a compelling cost and power efficiency alternative to Active Optical Cables (AOCs). This cable is ideal for flexible, high-bandwidth connections within a rack or between adjacent racks, ensuring reliable and robust 400GbE performance.


 

Key Features 

 

  • 400 Gigabit Ethernet (400GbE) Connectivity: Delivers full 400Gbps bandwidth, supporting the most stringent speed and data transfer requirements of cutting-edge data center infrastructure.

  • QSFP-DD PAM4 Interconnect: Features QSFP-DD connectors on both ends, utilizing 8 lanes each operating at 56Gbps with PAM4 (Pulse Amplitude Modulation 4-level) signaling for maximum data throughput.

  • Active Electrical Cable (AEC) Technology: Integrates active components to boost and re-time electrical signals, significantly extending the reliable reach and improving signal quality beyond passive copper, all while offering power and cost benefits over optical solutions.

  • 3.0 Meter Length: An optimal length for flexible cabling within larger racks or extending connectivity to closely situated racks, providing essential reach without compromise.

  • Optimized for Data Centers: Specifically engineered for mission-critical data center, cloud, and enterprise applications requiring high-bandwidth, low-latency interconnections.

  • Superior Signal Integrity: Active electronics actively manage and condition the signal along the cable, ensuring minimal signal degradation, reduced bit error rates, and stable, high-performance network operation.
  • Credo HiWire Reliability: Manufactured by Credo, a recognized innovator in high-speed connectivity solutions, guaranteeing high quality, dependable performance, and broad compatibility.

  • Power Efficient: Offers an optimized power consumption profile, contributing to lower operational expenditures compared to alternative technologies for similar reach.
