Mellanox Technologies MCP7H50H01AR30 200Gb/s QSFP56 to 2x100Gb/s QSFP56 4.92ft network ethernet cable

SKU CH-Z3SS-FF06Q MPN MCP7H50H01AR30

Passive copper cable splits a 200 Gbit/s QSFP56 port into two 100 Gbit/s QSFP56 links over 4.92 ft with LSZH jacket

  • Passive copper design reduces power draw and heat
  • 200 Gbit/s aggregate bandwidth for high-density uplinks
  • Splits one 200G QSFP56 port into two 100G links
  • LSZH jacket emits low smoke in fire scenarios
  • 92 ft length fits standard rack-to-rack runs

200Gb/s to 2x100Gb/s Splitter Cable

This passive copper cable splits a single 200Gb/s QSFP56 port into two 100Gb/s QSFP56 connections. It suits network engineers building leaf-spine fabrics or connecting switches to servers in high-density racks. The 4.92 ft LSZH jacket meets data-centre fire regulations while keeping cable routing tidy.

Suits HDR InfiniBand breakout.

Buyers who need a straight 200Gb/s QSFP56-to-QSFP56 link should choose a different cable. This hybrid assembly is built specifically for breakout configurations where one switch port serves two separate 100Gb/s endpoints.

200Gb/s aggregate over 30 AWG passive copper

The cable delivers 200 Gbit/s total bandwidth across two 100Gb/s lanes using 30 AWG copper conductors. Passive design means no external power is required, but reach is limited to the specified 4.92 ft length for signal integrity.

Questions about this item

What ports must my switch or NIC already provide for this cable to plug in?

Your equipment needs one 200Gb/s QSFP56 port and two 100Gb/s QSFP56 ports to match the hybrid ends of this 4.92ft passive copper cable.

Can the two 100Gb/s ends connect to the same QSFP56 ports I use with other 100Gb/s QSFP56 cables?

Yes, each 100Gb/s leg uses a standard QSFP56 interface, so it fits any QSFP56 port that accepts 100Gb/s passive copper assemblies.

How can I verify the link is running at the rated 200Gb/s and 2x100Gb/s after installation?

Check the port statistics on both sides of the connection; they should report a 200Gb/s lane on the single end and two 100Gb/s lanes on the split end with zero errors.
