The NVIDIA ConnectX-7 MCX713106AS-CEAT is a high-performance Ethernet network adapter designed for server and data-center environments, including AI infrastructure, high-performance computing (HPC), cloud data centers, distributed storage, enterprise networking, and other bandwidth-intensive applications.

The adapter uses a PCIe 5.0 x16 host interface and is compatible with PCIe 4.0 and PCIe 3.0 systems. NVIDIA specifies a Half-Height Half-Length (HHHL) form factor measuring approximately 2.71 × 6.6 inches (68.90 × 167.65 mm) with a tall bracket. A compatible server should provide an appropriate PCIe x16 slot, sufficient power, airflow, and physical clearance for the adapter.

The MCX713106AS-CEAT features two QSFP112 networking ports for Ethernet connectivity. NVIDIA specifies Ethernet data rates of 100GbE, 50GbE, 40GbE, 25GbE, 10GbE, and 1GbE for this adapter. The actual link speed depends on the connected network equipment, cable or optical module, and network configuration.

The MCX713106AS-CEAT is an Ethernet-only ConnectX-7 EN adapter and should not be treated as a VPI or InfiniBand adapter. NVIDIA's specifications identify this OPN specifically as a dual-port QSFP112 Ethernet adapter.

For networking connectivity, use compatible QSFP112 cables, transceivers, or optical modules appropriate for the intended Ethernet speed and deployment. Cable and optical requirements can vary according to network speed, switch compatibility, transmission distance, and the selected copper or optical connection.

The adapter requires appropriate server power and airflow. NVIDIA specifies that ConnectX-7 cards should be installed in PCIe slots capable of supplying the required power and that system airflow should be planned appropriately for the adapter. Compatibility with desktop or workstation systems should not be assumed; NVIDIA designs these adapters primarily for controlled server and data-center environments.

For Windows deployments, verify the specific Windows version and NVIDIA WinOF-2 driver release supported for the intended configuration. NVIDIA also provides Linux and virtualization driver/software support for ConnectX-7 adapters.

Before purchasing or installing the MCX713106AS-CEAT, verify PCIe compatibility, physical clearance, power and airflow requirements, operating-system and driver support, and QSFP112 cable or optical-module compatibility for the intended server and network environment.
