Passive cables are ideal for short-reach applications like 2-meter connections within data centers, while active cables support longer distances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this QSFP56 cable compatible with my Nvidia infrastructure?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, the Axiom 200GBASE-CR4 QSFP56 passive DAC cable is specifically designed for Nvidia-compatible systems. It supports standard 200GBASE-CR4 connectivity and integrates seamlessly with Nvidia networking equipment and switches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the typical use cases for a 200GBASE-CR4 passive cable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cable is ideal for high-speed data center interconnects, including server-to-switch connections, switch-to-switch links, and storage area network (SAN) deployments where 200 Gigabit Ethernet performance is required over short distances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use this 2-meter cable for longer-distance connections?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo, passive DAC cables are designed for short-reach applications. For distances beyond 2 meters, consider active DAC cables or optical transceivers. The 2-meter length is optimized for typical rack-level deployments in data centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"AXIOM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41627106279499,"sku":"980-9I54D-00V002-AX","price":435.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1824\/0789\/files\/1082511038.jpg?v=1784829372","url":"https:\/\/www.tecisoft.ca\/products\/axiom-200gbase-cr4-qsfp56-passive-dac-cable-2m","provider":"TeciSoft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
