About this item
A Mellanox ConnectX-5 Ex 100G PCIe card is the kind of upgrade home-lab builders and small server rooms look at when 10GbE stops feeling fast. This open-box MCX556A-EDAT is a VPI adapter, and the seller bundles two MMA1B00-C100D OSFP28 modules, so you are not hunting for optics separately.
Is the MCX556A-EDAT ConnectX-5 Ex right for my server?
It suits builders who already have, or plan to add, 100G-capable switching or a direct link between two machines. Confirm your motherboard has a suitable free PCIe slot and adequate airflow before committing.
- Check the listing photos for the bracket type (full height or low profile).
- Ask whether the card has been tested and which firmware it runs.
- Confirm both transceivers are pictured and match the part number.
- Verify your cables and switch ports match the modules.
