The boat was capable of operating at depths of up to {{convert|230|m}}.{{sfn|Gröner|1991|pp=43-46}} The submarine had a maximum surface speed of {{convert|17.7|kn}} and a maximum submerged speed of {{convert|7.6|kn}}.{{sfn|Gröner|1991|pp=43-46}} When submerged, the boat could operate for {{convert|80|nmi}} at {{convert|4|kn}}; when surfaced, she could travel {{convert|8500|nmi}} at {{convert|10|kn}}. U-401 was fitted with five {{convert|53.3|cm|in|0|abbr=on}} torpedo tubes (four fitted at the bow and one at the stern), fourteen torpedoes, one {{convert|8.8|cm|in|2|abbr=on}} SK C/35 naval gun, 220 rounds, and a {{convert|2|cm|in|sp=us|abbr=on}} C/30 anti-aircraft gun.

She served with the 1st U-boat Flotilla from 10 April 1941 (training) and stayed with that organization from 1 July until her loss. The boat's only patrol was preceded by the short journey from Königsberg (Kaliningrad) to Trondheim. Patrol and lossU-401 departed Trondheim on 9 September 1941. On 3 August she was sunk by depth charges dropped from the British destroyer {{HMS|Wanderer|D74|6}}, the Norwegian-crewed destroyer {{HMS|St. Albans|I15|6}} and the British corvette {{HMS|Hydrangea|K39|6}}. Forty-five men died in U-401; there were no survivors.
