Cisco NCS 5500 1x200G CFP2 + 2x100G QSFP28 MPA | Service Provider — NC55-MPA-1TH2H-S=

Build denser transport capacity without fragmenting your spare strategy. The Cisco NCS 5500 1x200G CFP2 and 2x100G QSFP28 MPA is designed for service-provider environments that need a compact way to mix 200G and 100G connectivity on the same platform. For network architects, the appeal is operational as much as technical. A single module that supports both 200G CFP2 and 100G QSFP28 interfaces can simplify platform planning, reduce the number of interface cards to stock, and keep high-speed handoffs available for evolving edge and aggregation designs. That matters when you are supporting traffic growth, migration between link speeds, or replacement requirements across multiple sites. Cisco’s NCS 5500 family is built for carrier-scale routing, and this MPA fits that context. It gives teams a way to preserve port flexibility while maintaining a cleaner inventory model than separate cards for each speed class. For procurement, that means fewer line items to manage. For operations, it means faster response when a port profile needs to change or a module must be replaced. Choose this MPA when uptime, interface density, and platform consistency matter more than lowest-cost alternatives. It is the kind of part that earns its place in environments where every port has a job and every spare has to justify itself.
