Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Mellanox MCX654105A-HCAT available refurbished? +
Yes. This page lists the refurbished condition currently available from BuyRouterSwitch. Availability can change, especially for bulk orders.
Can I request bulk pricing for MCX654105A-HCAT? +
Yes. Businesses, resellers, MSPs, government buyers and procurement teams can request custom quantity pricing.
Does BuyRouterSwitch ship MCX654105A-HCAT internationally? +
BuyRouterSwitch ships enterprise IT hardware to customers in the United States and international markets, subject to destination and product restrictions.
What does the VPI designation mean for the Mellanox ConnectX-6 MCX654105A-HCAT? +
VPI stands for Virtual Protocol Interconnect. This feature allows the adapter to operate in either InfiniBand or Ethernet mode, providing the flexibility to switch between these high-performance fabric technologies based on your specific data center requirements without needing to replace the physical hardware.
Does the MCX654105A-HCAT support PCIe 4.0 connectivity? +
Yes, this card utilizes the PCIe 4.0 x16 interface. By leveraging the high bandwidth of PCIe 4.0, the ConnectX-6 ensures that the network throughput does not become a bottleneck, allowing for full utilization of the adapter's massive 200Gb/s performance capabilities in modern server environments.
What types of optical transceivers or cables are compatible with this NIC? +
The card is equipped with QSFP56 ports. You can use a variety of compatible direct attach copper (DAC) cables, active optical cables (AOC), or high-speed optical transceivers depending on your specific reach and distance requirements within your rack or data center infrastructure.
Can I use the Mellanox ConnectX-6 for GPU-heavy AI and machine learning workloads? +
Absolutely. This card is designed for high-performance computing, featuring hardware offloads like GPUDirect RDMA. This reduces CPU overhead by allowing the GPU to communicate directly with the network adapter, significantly accelerating data transfer speeds during complex AI training and inference tasks.
How many ports does this specific ConnectX-6 model provide? +
The MCX654105A-HCAT is a single-port adapter. While it only features one physical QSFP56 port, that port is capable of delivering up to 200Gb/s of throughput, making it an ideal choice for high-bandwidth server connectivity where single-link extreme performance is prioritized over multi-port redundancy.
Is this adapter suitable for low-latency financial trading applications? +
The ConnectX-6 series is highly regarded for its ultra-low latency capabilities. It includes sophisticated hardware-based acceleration and kernel bypass technologies such as VMA and DPDK, which minimize packet processing delays, making it an excellent candidate for demanding financial environments requiring near-instantaneous execution.
What is the typical power consumption profile of this PCIe card? +
The power consumption varies based on the traffic load and the type of optics installed. Because it is a high-performance 200Gb/s card, it is designed to operate within standard PCIe slot power envelopes; however, we recommend ensuring your server chassis provides adequate airflow for cooling during sustained high-load operations.
Does this NIC support RoCE for storage networking? +
Yes, the adapter supports RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE). This allows for efficient, low-latency storage access by offloading the transport layer from the CPU to the NIC, which is essential for maximizing performance in NVMe-over-Fabrics deployments and other high-speed storage area network architectures.
How can I obtain a bulk quote for multiple ConnectX-6 units? +
