NVIDIA MCX623436AC-CDAB Concise Descriptor

Overview

The NVIDIA MCX623436AC-CDAB is a 100GbE QSFP56 adapter card engineered for high-bandwidth, secure network data transmission. This card is critical for environments demanding rapid data offload and secure communication, such as large-scale surveillance systems processing high-resolution video streams or data-intensive analytics platforms. Its crypto-secure feature set ensures data integrity and confidentiality during transit, making it suitable for deployments where sensitive information is handled.

Compatibility

This adapter card is designed for integration into systems supporting QSFP56 transceivers and 100 Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. It is compatible with servers and network appliances that feature PCIe Gen4 x16 slots and meet the physical and power requirements for such high-speed networking hardware. Specific compatibility extends to motherboards and chassis configurations capable of accommodating its form factor and thermal output, typically found in enterprise-grade servers and high-performance computing nodes.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a free PCIe Gen4 x16 slot. Ensure the host system's power supply can support the adapter's operational requirements. Proper airflow within the server chassis is essential for maintaining optimal operating temperatures and preventing thermal throttling. Static discharge precautions should be observed during installation. The QSFP56 transceiver (sold separately) must be compatible with the network infrastructure.
