6. In the Value display box, check the fields VEN and DEV (fields are separated by ‘&’). In the
display example above, notice the sub-string “PCI\VEN_15B3&DEV_1003”: VEN is equal
to 0x15B3 – this is the Vendor ID of Mellanox Technologies; and DEV is equal to 1003 – this
is a valid Mellanox Technologies PCI Device ID.
If the PCI device does not have a Mellanox adapter ID, return to Step 2 to check
another device.

tory at http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/15b3.
