How many network ports are available on the HPE P22203-001 adapter?

: "The HPE P22203-001 is specified as a 2-port adapter. It is identified as the Ethernet 100Gb 2-port QSFP28 MCX516A-CCHT Adapter, indicating that it provides two separate network connections. This can be important for designs that require multiple 100Gb Ethernet links from a single adapter in a server.

What type of network interface does the HPE P22203-001 provide?

This adapter provides QSFP28 interfaces on its two ports. It is described as an Ethernet 100Gb 2-port QSFP28 MCX516A-CCHT Adapter, indicating that QSFP28 is the physical interface type. This helps ensure compatibility with QSFP28-based cables and transceivers used in 100Gb Ethernet network designs.

What is the full model name of the HPE P22203-001 network adapter?

The full model name is HPE Ethernet 100Gb 2-port QSFP28 MCX516A-CCHT Adapter. The SKU P22203-001 is associated with this model, helping buyers and engineers reference the exact adapter when creating bills of materials or checking against existing infrastructure standards.

How can procurement teams uniquely identify this HPE adapter?

Procurement teams can use the SKU P22203-001 together with the model description Ethernet 100Gb 2-port QSFP28 MCX516A-CCHT Adapter. These identifiers distinguish this network adapter from other HPE Ethernet products and support accurate ordering and inventory tracking in larger deployments.
