Specifications

Power and Thermal Planning

The rated power consumption is 1.5W Per End. Include this load in the host-port power and thermal budget, especially in densely populated switches. Maintain front-panel clearance and do not bundle the cable so tightly that it obstructs airflow around the connectors.

Network and Protocol Considerations

The intended application is determined by the host interface and protocol support. Listed interface and protocol references include QSFP112 MSA, SFF-8636. Confirm that the host firmware and port configuration support the same operating mode.

Length Selection and Installation Planning

At 1m (3ft), QSFP112-400G-ACC-1M3FT is a practical choice for direct connections within one rack. Route the cable along the intended management path rather than pulling it diagonally across adjacent connectors, and leave enough clearance for insertion, removal and front-panel airflow.

Position Within the Length Range

QSFP112-400G-ACC-1M3FT is the shortest of 3 verified length options in this family. It is the preferred choice when the port positions are close and cable slack must be kept to a minimum. The next option is QSFP112-400G-ACC-2M7FT at 2m (7ft), adding 1m for a less direct routing path; selecting it unnecessarily would leave more cable to dress.

Data-Center Design and Airflow

Select the assembly by both reach and rack layout. A direct connection removes separate module-and-patch-cord interfaces, but it still needs a bend-safe pathway and clear connector access. Keep cable bundles from blocking front-panel airflow, account for the listed interface power where applicable and choose a length that supports maintenance without leaving an unmanaged coil. For this assembly, the listed conductor specification is 30AWG; the minimum bend radius is 35mm; the stated power consumption is 1.5W Per End; the jacket material is PVC.

Cable Construction and Routing

This assembly uses 30AWG conductors, PVC jacket, minimum bend radius 35mm. These mechanical characteristics affect how the cable should be dressed behind the equipment. Avoid sharp edges, excessive ties and repeated tight bends close to the connector boots.

Quality Assurance and Packaging

Each cable receives connector inspection and a functional link check before it is coiled with bend-safe slack and packed. Protective materials shield the connector housings during transport. Rack or project labels are available to keep length, part number and installation destination aligned. Neutral packaging and customer-specific packing documentation are available on request.

Ordering Information

Provide the OEM reference, HT part number, fixed length and quantity, together with the intended host interfaces. Rack-based quantities and packaging instructions can be included for larger deployments. Other lengths are separate products and should be entered on their own order lines. Quantity and any labeling instructions should be attached specifically to QSFP112-400G-ACC-1M3FT.

Generic Compatibility and Factory Testing

Compatibility confirmation combines host identification with actual link establishment and diagnostic checks. The assembly is prepared for the stated OEM reference rather than selected only by connector shape. For a new data-center deployment, the equipment model, port mode and software release provide the most useful basis for a pre-order review. The check includes link stability and diagnostic indications, followed by a final inspection of both ends.

Frequently Asked Questions

Shipping and Lead Time

Available stock is generally dispatched within one to three working days after order confirmation, with production lead times advised for larger quantities. International express, air cargo and sea freight can be selected according to destination and carton volume; customer courier accounts and nominated forwarders are also accepted.
