Product Description
NVIDIA ConnectX-6 Lx EN SmartNIC MCX623106AN-CDAT
MCX623106AN-CDAT Product Overview
The NVIDIA ConnectX-6 Lx EN SmartNIC MCX623106AN-CDAT delivers intelligent, accelerated networking for modern enterprise data centers, offering exceptional value for 25GbE deployments. This advanced network card combines high performance, robust security features, and sophisticated acceleration capabilities in a cost-effective solution ideal for cloud and enterprise environments.
MCX623106AN-CDAT Key Characteristics
- Dual-port 25GbE or single-port 50GbE configuration options
- PCI Express Gen4 x8 host interface with backward compatibility
- Zero-Touch RoCE for simplified RDMA over Ethernet deployments
- Hardware-accelerated IPsec encryption and decryption
- ASAP² technology for SDN and NFV acceleration
- Hardware root-of-trust for enhanced security
Core Technologies
The ConnectX-6 Lx incorporates NVIDIA's innovative ASAP² (Accelerated Switch and Packet Processing) technology that offloads software-defined networking data plane operations to the nic card. It features industry-leading RoCE (RDMA over Converged Ethernet) implementation with Zero-Touch RoCE capability, eliminating the need for complex network configuration. The card also provides hardware acceleration for IPsec cryptography with AES-XTS 256/512-bit key support.
MCX623106AN-CDAT Operational Framework
This SmartNIC operates by offloading network processing tasks from the host CPU, handling packet processing, encryption, and traffic management directly on the card. Through its RDMA capabilities, it enables direct memory access between systems without CPU involvement, significantly reducing latency. The ASAP² engine processes overlay network encapsulations including VXLAN, GENEVE, and NVGRE at line rate, while the connection tracking hardware accelerates layer 4 firewall performance.
Deployment Scenarios
- Enterprise data center networking and cloud infrastructure
- Virtualized environments and containerized applications
- Network function virtualization (NFV) implementations
- Storage area networks with RDMA requirements
- Secure communications with IPsec encryption
