Cisco DPX50/X90 2x40G SR NIC License Fixed SMS-1K | Enterprise Networking — 95-2X40BPSR-SMS-1K

Increase bandwidth where the architecture needs it most with a pluggable 2 x 40G-BP SR NIC for Cisco DPX50/X90 platforms. This fixed SMS-1K licensed configuration is built for short-reach fiber deployments that demand more throughput per port and a tighter, more efficient footprint. For infrastructure teams, the appeal is straightforward: fewer interfaces, more capacity, and a configuration aligned to high-performance network tiers. That makes it a strong fit for aggregation layers, dense uplink scenarios, and environments where port count matters less than sustained bandwidth. The fixed-license model also simplifies planning and procurement. Instead of piecing together a broader solution, teams can order a defined configuration that maps directly to the intended deployment. The result is a cleaner bill of materials, easier standardization, and a better fit for organizations that value precision in both design and spend.
