The head end is QSFP-Double Density (QSFP-DD). This means that the control signals shown in the pad layout and the pin assignments have the following functions:

Name

Function

Description

ModPrsL

Output, asserted low

Pull-up by host when no cable is present. The cable is connecting the signal to ground. Hence, asserted when the cable is plugged in.

ModSelL

Input, asserted Low

Asserted by host to activate the I2C (two-wire interface) to the EEPROM inside the cable.

ResetL

Input, asserted Low

Must be de-asserted to enable the host system to read the EEPROM.

LPMode

Input, asserted high

Not connected in DAC cables.

ePPS

Input

Not connected in DAC cables

IntL

Output, asserted low

Not used in DAC cables, internally pulled high.
