Request Current Stock & PriceProduct overview
MCX556A-EDAT is the exact legacy OPN for an NVIDIA ConnectX-5 Ex VPI adapter with two QSFP28 ports supporting EDR InfiniBand at 100Gb/s or 100GbE and a PCIe x16 host interface. Unlike MCX556A-ECAT, the EDAT ordering row identifies the ConnectX-5 Ex configuration and PCIe 4.0; NVIDIA's manual also records PCIe 3.0 server certification while PCIe 4.0 testing was pending at that document revision. The product line is end-of-life, so buyers sourcing installed-base spares should verify the exact EDAT OPN and NVIDIA SKU rather than substitute a sibling variant; current availability is confirmed by RFQ.
