800G QSFP-DD & OSFP Direct Attach Copper (DAC) Cables
800G DAC cable is a high-performance, low-power direct-attach copper cable for short-distance, high-speed data transmission in data centers.
The 800G DAC cable is OSFP MSA and IEEE 802.3ck compliant and supports data rates up to 800Gbps.The cables typically utilize 16 pairs of high-speed copper wires with a data rate of 106.25Gbps per pair.
Cable lengths typically range from 0.5 meters to 3 meters, depending on the application scenario.

FAQ About 800G DAC Cable
An 800G DAC (Direct Attach Copper) cable is a high-speed, cost-effective, and low-latency interconnect solution used to transmit data at 800 Gigabits per second over short distances. It features integrated transceivers at both ends and connects directly into compatible ports, typically used in data centers, high-performance computing (HPC), and cloud infrastructure.
We can accept small quantity,even 1pc. MOQ:1pc
Key benefits include:
Low power consumption (passive cables don’t require power)
High reliability due to fewer failure points
Cost-effective for short-range connections
Minimal latency, ideal for time-sensitive applications
Plug-and-play simplicity
Common types include:
800G QSFP-DD to QSFP-DD DAC cables
800G OSFP to OSFP DAC cables
Breakout DAC cables, such as 800G QSFP-DD to 2x400G QSFP-DD or 800G to 8x100G options
These support different switch and device port types for flexible deployment.
800G DAC cables typically support lengths up to 0.5 to 3 meters, depending on the gauge and signal integrity requirements. For longer distances, Active DAC (AOC) or optical transceivers are recommended.
Consider the following:
Port type (QSFP-DD, OSFP)
Required cable length
Passive vs. active cable type
Application (standard or breakout)
