Product Overview

The 400G OSFP112 Passive DAC Cable (FOT-DAC-400G-O112) is a factory-terminated passive direct attach copper assembly linking one 400G OSFP112 port to a OSFP112 port, delivering full 400G throughput over 30/28/26 AWG twinax copper at distances of up to 2 m. As a passive cable it consumes almost no power and adds zero latency — the most cost-effective way to connect equipment inside or between adjacent racks.

Each assembly ships terminated, serialized and 100% traffic-tested: eye-diagram and BER verification on every lane, connector housings inspected, and EEPROM programmed to your requested vendor coding so the cable is recognized natively by your switches and NICs. This model is also offered NVIDIA MCP1660-compatible for GPU-cluster deployments.

OEM branding, custom lengths and mixed-coding ends (different vendor coding on each end) are all supported with short lead times.

Platform Compatibility

Every cable is EEPROM-programmed at the factory to the vendor coding you specify, so it is recognized natively — no "unsupported transceiver" warnings, no console workarounds. Mixed coding (a different vendor on each end) is available for inter-vendor links.

Typical Applications

Data Center Fabrics

Spine-leaf and top-of-rack links inside and between adjacent racks.

AI / GPU Clusters

High-radix accelerator fabrics where cost per port and power per bit decide the BOM.

HPC & Storage

InfiniBand-class latency for compute and NVMe-oF storage backends.

Enterprise Core

Cost-effective uplinks between aggregation and core switching layers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between passive and active DAC?

A passive DAC is a plain twinax copper link with no electronics — near-zero power, zero added latency, but limited to short reach. An active DAC adds signal-conditioning chips in the connector ends to roughly double the reach at slightly higher cost and power. For in-rack links a passive cable is almost always the right choice.

Will it work with my switch brand?

Yes — tell us your platform when ordering and we program the EEPROM with the matching vendor coding (NVIDIA/Mellanox, Cisco, Arista, Juniper, Huawei, HPE or open MSA). Mixed coding on the two ends is available for inter-vendor links.

What are your MOQ and lead time?

Standard configurations ship in 3–7 days with flexible MOQ. Custom OEM/ODM runs are quoted per project — send us your specs for a fast quotation.
