Cisco UCSX-ME-V5Q50G is the UCS VIC 15422 4x25-Gbps Ethernet and FCoE mezzanine Virtual Interface Card for the UCS X210c M6. It occupies the rear mezzanine connector and uses internal KR links rather than front-panel cages. This Cisco UCS X210c M6 network adapter fits the bottom rear mezzanine position and connects through UCSX-V5-BRIDGE to the X-Series Intelligent Fabric Module path. UCS X210c M6 uses the Cisco VIC 15422 with UCSX-ML-V5Q50G mLOM; the rear mezzanine card is not an mLOM replacement. UCSX-ML-V5Q50G is the matching mLOM sibling, while this plain configuration is the rear mezzanine expansion card.

512 virtual interfaces present PCIe NICs or HBAs to the host without SR-IOV dependency. Four 25G KR interfaces provide internal Ethernet and FCoE connectivity, and the X210c M6 host design carries 100Gbps per fabric with VIC 15420 and VIC 15422 installed. PCIe 4.0 x16 host connectivity runs toward CPU2, and two PCIe Gen4 x16 links run to each X-Fabric for PCIe node connectivity. UCSX-ME-V5Q50G uses Cisco UCS custom ASIC silicon and VIC Secure Boot from release 4.3(1). RoCEv2, NVMe-TCP, usNIC, DPDK, NetFlow, VXLAN, NVGRE and GENEVE offloads map to virtualization and storage profiles. Intersight Managed Mode 4.3(1) is the recommended release for Cisco VIC 15420 and 15422.
UCSX-ME-V5Q50G is offered in new sealed and certified refurbished condition. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested in a compatible host, and every port links at rated speed. Cisco stopped selling the adapter on 30 June 2025. Before the PO, confirm the rear mezzanine connector, two CPUs, UCSX-ML-V5Q50G mLOM and UCSX-V5-BRIDGE path. New sealed carries up to 3-year extended warranty, certified refurbished carries up to 1 year, and returns are 30 days on every condition, terms apply. UK, EU, US and MEA stock, RMA with advance replacement, PO accepted and Net-30 for government apply.

A buyer replacing a failed rear mezzanine card in an X210c M6 needs the same VIC 15422 path and the same UCSX-V5-BRIDGE connection to the mLOM. The order should match the rear mezzanine connector, two-CPU chassis and UCSX-ML-V5Q50G mLOM before the PO.
A buyer adding the second VIC path to an X210c M6 uses the rear mezzanine slot for the VIC 15422 and keeps the mLOM in place. The mLOM is always required, and the bridge card connects the mLOM and mezzanine adapter for the fabric path.
A lab team staging X-Series M6 firmware can match the VIC 15422 to Intersight Managed Mode 4.3(1) recommended release behavior. The test plan should include host recognition, the secure boot firmware image, the rear mezzanine slot and every 25G KR link before production sparing.
M7 or M8 ordering
M7 and M8 X-Series ordering uses the -D platform PID, not this M6 PID; order UCSX-ME-V5Q50G-D for the VIC 15422 mezzanine card.
C-Series rack server
UCS C-Series rack servers take mLOM or PCIe VICs rather than this X-Series mezzanine card; use UCSC-M-V5Q50GV2 for a C-Series M6 mLOM order.
100G mLOM requirement
A 100G X-Series M6 mLOM requirement does not use this 4x25G rear mezzanine adapter; choose UCSX-ML-V5D200GV2 for the 2x100G mLOM path.

UCSX-ME-V5Q50G is the Cisco UCS VIC 15422 4x25G Mezz X-Series adapter with Secure Boot for the UCS X210c M6. The base PID orders the M6 rear mezzanine card, and UCSX-ME-V5Q50G= is the spare form for the same adapter.
UCSX-ME-V5Q50G fits the UCS X210c M6 rear mezzanine connector. The chassis needs 2 CPUs, a matching UCSX-ML-V5Q50G mLOM path and UCSX-V5-BRIDGE between the mLOM and mezzanine card.
A UCS X210c M6 uses UCSX-ME-V5Q50G as the rear mezzanine VIC 15422 option. The same host also takes UCSX-ML-V5Q50G as the matching 4x25G mLOM and UCSX-ML-V5D200G for the 2x100G mLOM path.
UCSX-ME-V5Q50G has 4 x 25G KR internal interfaces, a rear mezzanine form factor, PCIe 4.0 x16 host connectivity and 512 virtual interfaces. The adapter uses the Cisco UCS custom ASIC and presents PCIe NICs or HBAs to the host.
UCSX-ME-V5Q50G is rated for four 25G KR internal interfaces. In the X210c M6 host design, VIC 15420 and VIC 15422 carry 100Gbps per fabric and 200Gbps per server through the Intelligent Fabric Module path.
UCSX-ME-V5Q50G uses the rear mezzanine connector at the bottom rear of the UCS X210c M6 chassis. The card requires 2 CPUs, and the UCSX-V5-BRIDGE connection joins the mezzanine adapter to the UCSX-ML-V5Q50G mLOM path.
UCSX-ME-V5Q50G uses Intersight Managed Mode 4.3(1) as the recommended release for VIC 15420 and VIC 15422. The card is managed through Intersight or UCS Manager in an X-Series configuration.
UCSX-ME-V5Q50G provides Ethernet and FCoE through the UCS unified fabric. RoCEv2 is available for NVMe over RoCEv2 and SMB Direct use cases, and the VIC feature set also includes iSCSI boot, usNIC, SR-IOV and overlay offloads.
UCSX-ME-V5Q50G is the base M6 orderable PID, and UCSX-ME-V5Q50G= is the spare form. The M7 and M8 platform ordering form is UCSX-ME-V5Q50G-D, which is a separate page because the -D suffix is platform-specific.
UCSX-ME-V5Q50G and UCSX-ME-V5Q50G-D differ by platform ordering code. The non-D PID applies to UCS M6 servers, and the -D PID applies to UCS M7 and M8 servers; functionality and operation are the same.
UCSX-ME-V5Q50G is the VIC 15422 rear mezzanine adapter, while UCSX-ML-V5Q50G is the VIC 15420 mLOM. The mezzanine card expands the X210c M6 fabric path and must be paired with the matching mLOM through UCSX-V5-BRIDGE.
Cisco stopped selling UCSX-ME-V5Q50G on 30 June 2025. Cisco has not announced a last date of support for UCSX-ME-V5Q50G. The UCS X210c M6 host stopped selling on 30 June 2025 and reaches last date of support on 30 June 2030.
ORM offers UCSX-ME-V5Q50G in new sealed and certified refurbished condition. New sealed carries up to 3-year extended warranty, certified refurbished carries up to 1 year, and returns are 30 days on every condition, terms apply. RMA with advance replacement is available.
