Product overview
MCX556A-EDAT is a NVIDIA/Mellanox ConnectX-5 ex VPI dual port 100Gb EDR InfiniBand/Ethernet QSFP28 PCIe 4.0 network Adapter. An adapter's driver and firmware support on the host operating system decides whether it is usable, not the slot it fits. Tell us the OS and hypervisor version and we will confirm support before it ships.
Send the quantity you need and we will come back within 48 business hours with availability confirmed, not estimated.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
MCX556A-EDAT is what is quoted and MCX556A-EDAT is what ships; where an alternate code is genuinely the same part we name it rather than swap it silently.
Compatibility checked
We confirm the part is supported on your platform before it ships, rather than leaving the check to you.
Volume pricing
The listed price is per unit; tiered pricing applies at quantity and purchase orders are accepted.
Questions buyers ask about this part
Is MCX556A-EDAT genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes. Supplied new and unopened, so the manufacturer warranty and firmware update path stay supported. No grey-market stock and no refurbished units sold as new.
Will MCX556A-EDAT work in my server?
Send us the server model or service tag and we will confirm before you order. Part numbers alone do not always settle it: firmware revision and platform generation matter, and this is the check that prevents a return.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes, POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.
