This is the 2.5-metre reach in Fortinet’s 400G-to-eight-50G breakout family. The FN-CABLE-QSFPDD-8SFP56-LB5 takes a single 400GbE QSFP-DD port and fans it out to eight separate 50GbE SFP56 connections on passive copper, so one high-density port on a 400G-capable FortiGate can feed eight 50G server or switch links without eight discrete optics. The extra length over the 1m version lets the eight legs reach across a taller cabinet or a wider spread of destination ports.

Breakout DAC is how a 400G aggregation port earns its density: one QSFP-DD cage on a high-end FortiGate drives eight 50GbE endpoints directly, no patch panel or eight separate modules involved. The 2.5m length suits a spine device at the top of a rack feeding 50G leaves or servers spread down the cabinet or into the next rack. For a tighter, single-rack fan-out use the 1m FN-CABLE-QSFPDD-8SFP56-L1.
Connects one 400GbE QSFP-DD port to eight SFP56 ports that run at 50GbE. Both ends are integrated, so the assembly is a single part number. If you need a 2x200G split instead of 8x50G, use the FN-CABLE-QSFPDD-2QSFP56 breakout; for a straight 400G port-to-port link, use the FN-CABLE-QSFPDD-DAC passive cable or the FN-TRAN-QSFPDD-SR8 optic over fiber.
