Description

The Arista AOC-D-D-400G-10M is a 400 Gigabit Ethernet Active Optical Cable delivering 400Gbps over a 10-metre multimode OM4 fibre span between QSFP-DD ports. Designed for high-density data centre spine-leaf interconnects, cloud infrastructure, HPC, and storage networking, it uses 8 electrical lanes at 50Gb/s each via PAM-4 modulation for reliable, interference-free signal transmission. The pre-terminated active cable assembly eliminates field termination, while its thin, lightweight construction simplifies cable management and maintains efficient rack airflow.

Operating at 850nm wavelength and compliant with IEEE 802.3cd, OIF-CEI-04.0, QSFP-DD MSA, and QSFP-DD-CMIS-rev4p0, this AOC integrates seamlessly with Arista 400G QSFP-DD platforms — refer to the Arista Transceiver and Cable Guide for a full list of supported switches. RoHS compliant and engineered for low power consumption, it is an efficient, cost-effective interconnect solution for demanding high-speed environments.

FAQs

Q: What is the maximum distance supported by the AOC-D-D-400G-10M?
A: The AOC-D-D-400G-10M supports a fixed cable length of 10 metres over OM4 multimode fibre. It is a pre-terminated assembly and is not intended for field cutting or re-termination.

Q: Which Arista switches are compatible with this 400G QSFP-DD AOC?
A: This cable is compatible with Arista switches featuring QSFP-DD 400G ports, such as those in the 7800R3 and 7500R3 series. Always consult the Arista Transceiver and Cable Guide for the definitive list of supported platforms before deployment.

Q: What is the difference between an AOC and a DAC cable for 400G interconnects?
A: An Active Optical Cable (AOC) like this one uses optical fibre internally with active electrical-to-optical conversion at each end, enabling longer reach and better immunity to EMI compared to a Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable. DACs are limited to very short distances (typically 1–5m), while AOCs support up to 10m or more while maintaining signal integrity in dense rack environments.

Q: Can this AOC be used for breakout configurations (e.g., 400G to 8x 50G)?
A: No — the AOC-D-D-400G-10M is a straight-through 400G QSFP-DD to QSFP-DD cable. For breakout applications (e.g., 400G to 8x 50G or 4x 100G), Arista offers separate breakout AOC and DAC options.

Q: Can I purchase the Arista AOC-D-D-400G-10M in Australia through IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller supplying authentic Arista transceivers and cables. Orders can be placed online or via the sales team for volume enquiries and lead-time confirmation.

Q: Is this cable suitable for high-performance computing (HPC) and storage networking?
A: Yes. The AOC-D-D-400G-10M is well-suited for HPC clusters, cloud switching fabrics, and high-speed storage networking where 400G bandwidth, low latency, and signal reliability over a 10-metre span are required.
