Need help with Mellanox Full bracket

[DouglasteR]

Hi there my friends.

I finally got two MCX354A-FCBT to play with and they are great, BUT i forgot the bracket lenght and got the half bracket option

Now, im using them without brackets and they are running just fine (40Gbps is a wet dream, even my ssds cant amass enough speed to saturate it). But the QSFP dac cable is heavy and prompt to mechanical movements even with very carefulness.

Do you guys know where i can get two full brackets for these cards ?

The card itself (with the low bracket)

Thanks !

Send a message to support@mellanox.com specifying part number and desired bracket you are in need of.. They will get back to you and send brackets if they have them in stock. I had three low profile mailed to me free of charge earlier this year for ConnectX-2 VPI cards.

If they don't have any, I can also send you some if you cover shipping.

Im in contact with my local Mellanox seller, if he cant get these brackets i'll let you know !

Thanks Chankster

I'm needing some of these. Is there a part number I can ask for / buy?
