Mellanox Connectx4-lx Mcx4121-acat 25gbe Dual Port Ethernet Lan Adapter

Introduction

The FUJITSU PLAN EP MCX4-LX 25GbE is based on Mellanox’s ConnectX®-4 Lx EN (Dual port) Network Interface Card. ConnectX-4 Lx EN Network Controller with 10/25Gb/s Ethernet connectivity addresses virtualized infrastructure challenges, delivering
best-in-class and highest performance to various demanding markets and applications.

Providing true hardware-based I/O isolation with unmatched scalability and efficiency, achieving the most costeffective and flexible solution for Web 2.0, Cloud, data analytics, database, and storage platforms.

25Gb Ethernet (25GbE) enables network bandwidth to be cost-effectively scaled in support of next generation server and storage solutions residing in Cloud and Web-scale data center environments.

The 25GbE results in a single switch lane connection similar to existing 10GbE technology—but it delivers 2.5 times greater bandwidth. Compared to 40GbE solutions, 25GbE technology provides superior switch port density by requiring just a single switch lane compared to the 40GbE with four lanes. FUJITSU PLAN EP MCX4-LX 25GbE Dual-Port 10/25GbE Network Interface Cards deliver advanced Ethernet solutions designed for FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY and PRIMEQUEST systems with use cases such as SAP HANA® or Microsoft Storage Spaces Direct (S2D).
