Quad-port SFP56 25/50GbE adapter

The NVIDIA ConnectX-7 MCX713104AC-ADAT is a half-height half-length network card that delivers four SFP56 ports running at 25 or 50 gigabits per second over copper or optical media. It plugs into a PCI Express 4.0 x16 slot and includes hardware crypto acceleration plus Secure Boot support for environments that require authenticated firmware.

Step up from dual-port 25GbE

Moving to this quad-port design doubles or quadruples port density in the same slot, which is valuable when rack space or PCIe lanes are limited. The upgrade pays off when the workload needs simultaneous 50GbE links to multiple top-of-rack switches or storage arrays and the server platform provides a Gen 4.0 x16 connection.

Sustained line-rate throughput on all four ports

With a PCIe 4.0 x16 host interface the card can maintain full 50GbE speeds across every port without bottlenecking the bus, even during extended transfers. Crypto offload and Secure Boot verification run in hardware, so encryption and attestation overhead stays constant regardless of traffic duration.

Questions about this item

Will the tall bracket on this MCX713104AC-ADAT fit a standard full-height PCIe slot?

Yes, the card uses a tall bracket designed for standard full-height PCIe slots and connects through a PCIe 4.0 x16 interface that is also compatible with 3.0 slots.

What is the correct way to seat the x16 connector so the four 25/50GbE ports link up?

Insert the card firmly until the x16 edge connector is fully engaged in the PCIe 4.0 slot; the 16 GT/s SERDES will then negotiate 4.0 or 3.0 speeds and the quad SFP56 ports will initialise.

When should I plan to replace the SFP56 transceivers in the four ports?

Replace transceivers only if a port fails to establish a 25GBASE-R, 50GBASE-R2 or 10GBASE-R link after verifying cables and switch configuration; the card itself has no user-serviceable parts.
