NVIDIA ConnectX Compatibility

The NVIDIA ConnectX-7 MCX755106AC-HEAT is designed for server and data-center environments requiring high-speed Ethernet or InfiniBand networking. It is suitable for applications including AI infrastructure, high-performance computing (HPC), cloud data centers, distributed storage, enterprise networking, and other high-bandwidth environments.

The adapter uses a PCIe 5.0 x16 host interface and should be installed in a compatible PCIe x16 slot. ConnectX-7 adapters can also operate with earlier PCIe generations, subject to the capabilities of the server and adapter configuration.

The MCX755106AC-HEAT uses a Half-Height Half-Length (HHHL) form factor with with 2.71 in x 6.6 in (68.90mm x 167.65 mm) dimensions and Two QSFP112 network ports. Before installation, verify that the server chassis provides sufficient physical clearance for the adapter and that the PCIe slot and surrounding components do not interfere with the card or its connectors.

The adapter requires appropriate power delivery and airflow for reliable operation. Server manufacturers may have specific requirements for PCIe slot power, system cooling, and supported adapter configurations. Desktop and workstation compatibility should not be assumed.

The MCX755106AC-HEAT is a VPI adapter, supporting both Ethernet and InfiniBand networking. It supports up to 200GbE Ethernet and NDR200 200Gb/s InfiniBand, depending on the selected networking mode and connected infrastructure.

For Windows deployments, verify the specific Windows version and NVIDIA WinOF-2 driver release required for the intended configuration. Linux and other operating systems should likewise be checked against NVIDIA's supported driver and firmware versions before deployment.

The two QSFP112 ports require compatible cables, transceivers, or optical modules appropriate for the intended Ethernet or InfiniBand deployment. Cable and transceiver requirements can vary based on network speed, switch compatibility, transmission distance, and networking protocol.

Before purchasing or installing the MCX755106AC-HEAT, verify PCIe compatibility, physical clearance, power and cooling requirements, operating-system and driver support, and QSFP112 cable or transceiver compatibility for your specific server and networking environment.
