400G (8x56G) QSFP-DD PAM4 to 4x100G QSFP28 NRZ AEC Cable

The active electrical cable data rate is 400G (8x56G PAM4) QSFP-DD breakout into four 100G (4x28G NRZ) QSFP28. It can connect and communicate data over short distances with multiple lanes. The AEC cable provides an 8 x 56G PAM4 signal in each direction. The typical power consumption on the QSFP-DD end is 4.5W and the QSFP28 end is 2.5W, a single 3.3V power supply, and built-in gearbox features. The active electrical cable complies with QSFP-DD MSA, QSFP MSA, RoHS2, and CMIS v4.0. This I2C management interface ensures high-reliability interconnects through comprehensive monitoring, configuration, etc. The AEC cables are designed for telecom and data center interconnects. It can replace DR4 to 4xDR1 transceiver solutions for PAM4 to NRZ conversion. The hot pluggable thin copper cables between PAM4 and NRZ ports with FEC termination and speed shifting functions, without using any optical components.
