Juniper Networks QDD-2X200G-1M 200G QSFP56 DAC Breakout Cable

Brand:

Juniper Networks QDD-2X200G-1M is a 1-meter passive twinax direct-attach copper breakout cable that connects one QSFP-DD interface to two 200GbE QSFP56 interfaces. It is designed for short-reach, high-bandwidth data-center interconnects where low-complexity copper cabling and direct 400G-to-2×200G connectivity can reduce deployment overhead. Juniper identifies the cable as a 400G DAC breakout into 2×200G.

OVERVIEW

  • The QDD-2X200G-1M is a Juniper 400G direct-attach copper breakout cable delivering 2 × 200GbE through QSFP56 endpoints, positioned for high-density data-center switching and server/network interconnects. Compatibility: Juniper lists it for QFX5130-32CD, QFX5130E-32CD, and QFX5220-32CD platforms. Model comparison: 1M is the shortest listed variant; QDD-2X200G-2M and -2P5M provide longer reach. Need: choose the cable length that matches rack topology and port spacing.
