Mellanox ConnectX-6 Dx Ethernet Smart Nic - PCI Express 4.0 x8 - 2 Port(s) - Optical Fiber - 25GBase-X - Plug-in Card

Industry's most Secure And advanced Cloud network interface cards (NIC), accelerating mission-critical data-center applications, e.g., security, virtualization, SDN/NFV, big data, machine learning, And storage, And delivering The highest return on investment (ROI)

Providing up To two ports of 100Gb/s or single-port of 200Gb/s Ethernet connectivity, ConnectX-6 Dx Is a member of Mellanox's world-class, award-winning ConnectX series of network adapters. Powered by leading 50Gb/s (PAM4) And 25/10 Gb/s (NRZ) SerDes technology And novel capabilities that accelerate Cloud And data-center payloads.

Security From Zero Trust To Hero Trust In an era where privacy of information Is key And zero trust Is The rule, ConnectX-6 Dx adapters offer a range of advanced built-in capabilities that bring security down To The end-points With unprecedented performance And scalability, including:

Crypto - IPsec And TLS data-in-motion inline encryption And decryption offload, And AES-XTS block-level data-at-rest encryption And decryption offload.

Probes & DoS Attacks Protection - ConnectX-6 Dx enables a hardware-based L4 firewall by ASAP2 offloading of stateful connection tracking.

NIC Security - Hardware Root-of-Trust (RoT) Secure Boot And Secure firmware update using RSA cryptography, And cloning-protection, via a device-unique secret key.

Advanced Virtualization
ConnectX-6 Dx delivers another level of innovation To enable building highly efficient virtualized Cloud data centers:

Virtualization - Mellanox ASAP - Accelerated Switch And Packet Processing® technology For vSwitch/vRouter hardware offload, delivers orders of magnitude higher performance vs. software-based solutions. ConnectX-6 Dx ASAP offers both SR-IOV And VirtIO in-hardware offload capabilities, And supports up To 8 million rules.

Advanced Quality of Service - Includes traffic shaping, And classification-based data policing.

Industry-leading RoCE
Following The Mellanox ConnectX tradition of industry-leading RoCE capabilities, ConnectX-6 Dx adds another layer of innovation To enable more scalable, resilient And easy-to-deploy RoCE solutions.

Zero Touch RoCE - Simplifying RoCE deployments ConnectX-6 Dx allows RoCE payloads To run seamlessly on existing networks without requiring special configuration on The network (no PFC, no ECN). ConnectX-6 Dx's new features ensure resiliency And efficiency at scale of such deployments.

Configurable Congestion Control - API To build user-defined congestion control algorithms, best serving various environments And RoCE And TCP/IP traffic patterns.

Efficient Storage Solutions
With its NVMe-oF target And initiator offloads, ConnectX-6 Dx brings further optimization To NVMe-oF, enhancing CPU utilization And scalability. Additionally, ConnectX-6 Dx supports hardware offload For ingress/egress of T10-DIF/PI/CRC32/CRC64 signatures, as well as AES-XTS encryption/decryption offload enabling user-based key management And a one-time-FIPS-certification approach.

Wide Selection of NICs
ConnectX-6 Dx NICs are available in several form factors including low-profile PCIe, OCP2.0 And OCP3.0 cards, With various network connection types (SFP28/56, QSFP28/56, or SFP-DD). The ConnectX-6 Dx portfolio also provides options For Mellanox Multi-Host® And Mellanox Socket Direct® configurations.
