Picked up one of these to back my Omada EAP670s. Working well so far with the stock firmware.

Seems like a worthwhile comparison. Hopefully the anecdotal report helps. Ubiquiti does have a wide product range and I wish I could say I considered it reliable. I'll drop a note here if the TP-Link stuff starts flaking out, but so far it's been better stability-wise than the Ubiquiti gear it...

I was using Ubiquity UAP-AC-PRO and AC-Lite gear across multiple sites for years (my home, parents, in-laws, cabin in the woods). They weren't very good/stable with firmware. Depending on the "stable" firmware generation I'd have devices just stop passing traffic and APs doing the same at times...

Thanks! This worked for me as well against the HP branded cards from a recentish thread (HP 649281-B21 ConnectX-3 VPI MCX354A-FCBT $35 + $8 shipping OBO ebay). I did not need to short anything.

I use it that way but I don’t do any ipv6. It’s my core with two other switches as the edge (ex4200 and 3750x). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm game to join the club as well. Cheers.

All of mine said 314a pro. I tested with my lb6m and iperf3. At this point they are in “homeprod” and have been running without issue. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@I_D I have one (T320) and there doesn't seem to be any way to use it in esx (6.5). It's going on my proxmox box because of that, so while the price point is great support is not depending on what you're trying to do. If anyone has these working in esx 6.5 let me know.

Ahmen @DaSaint. I figured it was worth a shot. The other two panned out as well. We'll see how they do over a longer time period.

I put three of them in one of my boxes. I'm seeing different info from these. Two say something like: Device Type: ConnectX3Pro Part Number: MCX314A-BCC_PROMISCUS_VLAN_Ax Description: ConnectX-3 Pro EN network interface card; 40GigE; dual-port QSFP; PCIe3.0 x8 8GT/s; RoHS R6...

Nothing visible so far. I’m going to toss them into a box later today to test ports Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The latest set came in the original box with both brackets Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My second order just arrived and these included both the low profile and full height brackets. I haven’t tested them yet Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If anyone wants low profile brackets I’ve got em Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Exactly @mmk. I stripped all the brackets [emoji17] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just updated the firmware on one and it shows up as a pro: [root@esx-3:/opt/mellanox/bin] ./mlxfwmanager --query Querying Mellanox devices firmware ... Device #1: ---------- Device Type: ConnectX3Pro Part Number: MCX314A-BCC_Ax

So far, yes. I'm able to pass traffic on both ports with the two cards. I'm using a qsfp to sfp+ adapter, so ymmv. I only have 10gb switches available for testing. I've ordered some more cards, I'll report back when I get them. Later this week hopefully I'll be cutting over to these cards for...

I picked up two as a test. I had to strip the low profile brackets but it looks like both ports work on them. I tested with an sfp+ adapter connected to a dac. Just some basic functionality testing, link, ping, etc.

I'm including the instructions. Roughly it's from the original post but I did find another variant in the same forums. I used the tools zip from the 2nd post from this link: Fujitsu D2607-8i - Crossflash to LSI 9211-8i I needed an extra reboot before assigning the original sas address Link to...

Got mine yesterday and I've just flashed it. Detected fine in linux. I'll try it in freenas later this week when I move things around.
