Broadcom QDD-400-AOC 400G QSFP-DD Active Optical Cable

Brand:

The Broadcom QDD-400-AOC is identified as a 400G QSFP-DD active optical cable assembly for short-reach, high-density data-center interconnects. Its integrated transceiver-and-cable design provides a compact alternative to separate optical modules and patch cables, supporting high-bandwidth connections in modern data-center fabrics. Public product records identify the model as a Broadcom 400G QSFP-DD AOC.

OVERVIEW

  • The QDD-400-AOC is a 400G QSFP-DD active optical cable intended for short-reach, high-density interconnects between compatible 400G networking equipment. Compatibility: use with compatible QSFP-DD 400G ports; verify host interoperability before ordering. Model comparison: AOC uses optical transmission, while QDD-400-CU is a passive copper alternative for shorter links.
