BlueOptics HPE P06248-B22 Compatible Breakout Direct Attach Cable (DAC) Passive 200GbE to 2x100GbE Twinaxial Copper QSFP56 to 2xQSFP56 3m BlueLAN

The BlueOptics HPE P06248-B22 compatible breakout Direct Attach Cable (DAC) is a high-performance passive twinaxial copper cable designed for 200 Gigabit Ethernet to 2x100 Gigabit Ethernet breakout applications. It features QSFP56 connectors on both ends, enabling seamless connectivity between switches, servers, and storage in data center environments. This cable is ideal for rack-to-rack and adjacent rack interconnections, offering low power consumption and reliable signal integrity.

Advantages

This breakout DAC provides a cost-effective and energy-efficient solution for high-speed data center networks. With passive design, it consumes less than 0.5W per end, reducing overall power usage. The twinaxial copper construction ensures low latency and high reliability, while the breakout configuration allows a single 200GbE port to connect to two 100GbE devices, maximizing port utilization.
