Cisco DPX50/X90 2x40G SR NIC Module, 3-Year | Network Adapter — RD95-2X40GBPSR-3Y

Keep critical network paths moving with the Cisco DPX50/X90 Pluggable 2x40G-BP SR NIC Module. Designed for DPX50/X90 environments, this module adds two 40 GbE short-reach ports in a pluggable form factor, giving infrastructure teams a clean way to expand bandwidth without redesigning the platform. For data center teams, the value is straightforward: higher port density, simpler scaling, and a fit for short-reach optical deployments where consistent throughput matters. Dual 40 GbE connectivity supports demanding east-west traffic patterns, storage access, and aggregation tasks where lower-speed adapters become a bottleneck. The pluggable design helps keep deployment planning efficient, while the 3-year term supports standard refresh and support cycles. For buyers comparing options, this module stands out when the requirement is not just connectivity, but a Cisco-aligned adapter built for the DPX50/X90 platform and sized for serious network workloads.
