  • The 0.80 mm pitch is an example-component fact, not a universal fabrication envelope.
  • No 76-pad lane/control/power mapping is published in this profile.
  • QSFP-DD generation and lane capability are not inferred from the connector form alone.
  • Retained rows context (excluded from normalized contact/body field): 2.
