Lenovo MCX562A-ACAB OCP 2x25G Adapter | Ethernet Adapter, OCP

Keep critical workloads moving with dual 25 GbE connectivity in an OCP form factor designed for dense server platforms. The Lenovo MCX562A-ACAB OCP 2x25G IPDC is built for infrastructure teams that need higher bandwidth per node without sacrificing expansion flexibility or rack efficiency. By moving network connectivity into an OCP architecture, this adapter helps preserve PCIe resources for storage, accelerators, and other server functions. That matters in environments where every slot and every lane has a purpose. Dual 25 GbE ports provide the throughput needed for virtualization clusters, distributed storage, and high-traffic application tiers that depend on consistent server-to-server communication. This is the kind of adapter chosen when standard gigabit networking is no longer enough, but oversizing the platform would add cost and complexity. It fits naturally into Lenovo server ecosystems and supports a cleaner, more serviceable hardware layout for enterprise deployments. For teams standardizing on 25 GbE, it offers a practical path to higher network density without moving to a larger footprint than the workload requires.
