Mellanox compatible MMA1L10-CR Description
EdgeOptic's MMA1L10-CR compatible is a Mellanox / NVIDIA-coded 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 transceiver built on the EdgeOptic 100G-QSFP28-10 platform. The MMA1L10-CR ordering reference originated under Mellanox Technologies and remains in active use on bills of materials, procurement spreadsheets, and chassis configuration files written before the brand transition. EdgeOptic programs each unit with the Mellanox / NVIDIA Networking-recognized EEPROM identifiers so the host adapter or switch reads the module under its expected MMA1L10-CR ordering code through the standard transceiver-detection flow.
NVIDIA acquired Mellanox Technologies in April 2020 and folded the Mellanox optics catalog into NVIDIA Networking while retaining the original Mellanox part numbers. The MMA1L10-CR ordering code stays active on NVIDIA's networking store and product brief as a 100GBASE-LR4 transceiver listed in NVIDIA Networking's qualified transceiver documentation. For an engineer working from a pre-2020 BOM that reads 'Mellanox MMA1L10-CR' or a procurement record that still uses the Mellanox SAP code, this page is the EdgeOptic compatible record under that legacy brand name.
The optical interface follows IEEE 802.3ba 100GBASE-LR4 with an IEEE 802.3bm CAUI-4 host electrical interface per NVIDIA's specifications page. Four LAN WDM channels at 1295.56, 1300.05, 1304.58, and 1309.14 nm each carry 25.78 Gbps NRZ on a single duplex LC SMF pair for an aggregate 103.125 Gbps line rate. The 6.3 dB optical path loss budget supports 10 km reach over G.652 single-mode fiber. The QSFP28 form factor follows MSA SFF-8665, and DDM telemetry is exposed via the SFF-8636 management interface for per-lane TX and RX optical power, supply voltage, module temperature, and laser bias current. NVIDIA classifies the module as Power Class 4, drawing up to 3.5 W.
Works on NVIDIA Networking platforms where MMA1L10-CR appears in the qualified transceiver documentation. Verify the entry against NVIDIA's compatibility documentation for the specific switch or adapter model before deployment. Backed by 15+ years of EdgeOptic compatibility engineering across vendor optical platforms. Ships next business day from EU stock with a lifetime warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Mellanox MMA1L10-CR on a pre-2020 BOM the same part as the current NVIDIA MMA1L10-CR?
Yes. NVIDIA acquired Mellanox Technologies in April 2020 and migrated the optics catalog under NVIDIA Networking while retaining the original Mellanox MMA prefix part numbers. A BOM line that reads 'Mellanox MMA1L10-CR' refers to the same 100GBASE-LR4 QSFP28 hardware that NVIDIA's networking store lists today under the same MMA1L10-CR ordering code. EdgeOptic's compatible serves both ordering paths from the same pool of physical inventory; procurement teams consolidating spares across pre-2020 and post-2020 records can order against either brand reference and receive the same module.
Should I update legacy Mellanox MMA1L10-CR entries in our procurement system to the NVIDIA part number?
The MMA1L10-CR ordering code itself did not change across the brand transition; only the manufacturer-of-record on NVIDIA's published catalog moved from Mellanox Technologies to NVIDIA. Procurement records that still use 'Mellanox MMA1L10-CR' continue to resolve to a current, supported ordering code on NVIDIA Networking. Most teams keep the legacy brand label on existing line items for audit-trail continuity and update only the manufacturer field on new requisitions. EdgeOptic's compatible accepts either brand-name framing in the order, since both refer to the same MMA1L10-CR ordering reference.
