While the world's leading hyperscale data centers are deploying their 200G/400G upgrades, QSFP-DD is predicted to become the mainstream form-factor of 400G optical modules. As 400G becomes ubiquitous in the networking world, QSFP-DD breakout cables will be key in simplifying all network architectures from the Core to Top-of-Rack (ToR).
Unfortunately, breakout cable options for network aggregation have been limited or cost-prohibitive from OEM suppliers -- until now.
