    Mellanox ConnectX-3 Pro EN (MCX314A-BCCT)

    Not sure if these Pro versions are still a thing but pricing is going wild. If you take more than 10x seller accepts 15US$ :oops: Hope they are genuine. If I'm not mistaken, these can do 56Gbps on IB. Mellanox ConnectX-3 Pro EN Netzwerkkarte (MCX314A-BCCT) 7290107197144 | eBay

    Both ports on Mellanox ConnectX-3 FDR/EN have the same PCI function ID | HP 649282-B21

    Hi, I recently started to use the HP Mellanox QSFP+ cards (both 649282-B21 and 764285-B21) but I'm facing the issue that both ports on the NIC have the exact same PCI address (even the same function id). I wanted to use them for a VPP router but this does not work as DPDK can't handle this edge...

    Does a Mellanox SN2010 SFP28 port support 1GbE?

    Hello All, We are configuring our Mellanox SN2010 switches and need to configure one of the SFP28 ports for 1GbE to connect to the Internet circuit in our cabinet. I don't see on the Mellanox datasheet explicit support for 1GbE connection - only 10/25GbE. We purchased several of these...

    MELLANOX CONNECTX-2 MNPA19-XTR Too slow

    Hello, after long efforts, I upgraded my MELLANOX CONNECTX-2 MNPA19-XTR cards to firmware version 2.10.720. However, interestingly, iperf3 shows 6.55Gbits speed when copying files from my NAS Server (OpenMediaVAult 6.3 Debian 11) to my Windows 11 Client. However, when copying files from my...

    What would cause a command to be added/removed from a Mellanox switch config?

    I have an MSB7800 running 3.10.2102 code and it seems like the following config line at the end is being added and removed randomly. Does anyone know why this would happen? I have confirmation from the team no one is doing it manually and I am trying to get the configs into git for archive...

    EXPIRED Mellanox MCP1600-E002 QSFP28 IB EDR (100Gb/s) 2M DAC used - $12 OBO

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/314167641289 Looks like it was discounted to $12 few days ago. Which is an attractive price for EDR DAC. From quick research MCP1600-Exxx should support 56G Ethernet and FDR 56Gbit/s IB both. Ordered 4 for myself.

    Mellanox ConnectX-3 Windows 11

    None of Nvidia's WinOF drivers support Windows 11. I tried to install a Win10 driver and it gave errors, like 1719 "Windows Installer service could not be started." Upon trying to close out the failed installation, I can't even close it, it gives 2732 "Directory Manager not initialized"...

    Mellanox ConnectX-3 Wake on LAN

    Hi, I'm using ConnectX-3's to implement 40Gbit networking throughout my home, and one of the important nodes is the HTPC. As you might imagine I think that it would be swell given the lack of HDMI-CEC on Nvidia to be able to boot up the PC without getting off the couch. The first step for that...

    Mellanox ConnectX3 MCX353A-QCAT? -FCBS?

    What are the difference between these and the -FCBT? I have some 354A-FCBT and -QCBT dual port NICs and I like them because they work and I'm familiar with their management now. I have need for the even smaller profile single slot QSFP+ cards like the above, which I see on EBay, and I'd like to...
