Actually, it's specced out at 72MHz max sample rate. The actual bandwidth spec is usually higher and is dependent on the ADC. Would be nice for the OEM to spec out the two separately.

Yeah, actual (acceptable) bandwidth is probably close to 1/4 the sampling rate. They're fudging terms around here. It's probably somewhere close to 20mhz analog bandwidth.
