Description

This dual-port 100GbE network interface card is based on the Nvidia/Mellanox ConnectX-5 (MCX516A-CDAT) and is supplied as a Cisco UCS C-Series adapter. It is designed for high-bandwidth server connectivity in data centre, virtualisation and storage workloads where a single card needs to carry two 100 Gigabit Ethernet links.

The card provides 2x 100GbE QSFP28 ports on a PCIe x16 host interface, in a half-height, half-length form factor that suits standard UCS C-Series rack server slots. The dual-port MCX516A-CDAT design distinguishes it from the single-port MCX515A-CCAT variant, which is a separate SKU.

It is listed by Cisco as a supported PCIe card for UCS C480 M5 servers and also appears in the C220 M5, C240 M5 and C225 M6 server documentation. Connect it using QSFP28 optics or direct attach cables, and check the Cisco product brief for the exact supported cable and optic list.

Enquire with XS Network Tech for new or used pricing and availability.

Q: What optics or cables does it use?
A: The two ports are QSFP28, so use 100G QSFP28 optics or direct attach cables. Refer to the Cisco product brief for the exact supported cable and optic list.

Q: What host interface and form factor does it need?
A: It uses a PCIe x16 host interface and is a half-height, half-length card, so the server needs a free x16 slot that accepts this form factor.
