QSFP Cages and Cable Assemblies

Stewart Connector QSFP cages and cable assemblies feature optimized construction to minimize insertion loss and cross talk in high-density networks

Image of Stewart Connector QSFP Cages and Cable AssembliesStewart Connector QSFP-DD cages are constructed from a robust metal alloy, ensuring the secure placement of the QSFP module’s electrical and optical components. Additionally, the cage aids in thermal management, maintains signal integrity, and minimizes interference. The QSFP-DD passive copper cable assembly includes eight differential copper pairs, providing four data transmission channels with speeds up to 56 Gbps (PAM4) per channel. It complies with 400G Ethernet and InfiniBand enhanced data rate (EDR) standards. This 400G copper cable assembly is available in wire gauges of 30 AWG and 28 AWG and features low insertion loss and minimal cross talk.

Features
  • Stainless-steel press-fit 1x1 cages with EMI springs (with or without heat sink)
  • Cage temperature range: -40°C to +85°C
  • 400G copper cables
  • Cable temperature range: 0°C to +70°C
  • Supports aggregate data rates of 400 Gbps
  • Optimized construction to minimize insertion loss and crosstalk
  • EEPROM provides information about the cable to the host system
  • RoHS compliant
Applications
  • Networking devices such as switches and patch panels
  • Computing devices such as servers
  • Datacenter interconnections
  • Cloud computing and artificial intelligence (AI)
  • High-density networks
