Mellanox ConnectX-2 I/O Mezzanine IB Adapter Card Available Through Dell

For PowerEdge M-Series blade servers

Mellanox Technologies, Ltd. announced that its second generation ConnectX-2 I/O mezzanine adapter card is now available through Dell for the PowerEdge M-Series Blade Servers.

Mellanox’s ConnectX-2 provides 40Gb/s InfiniBand connectivity with CORE-Direct to enable significant improvements in application performance and scalability and increase the productivity of compute clusters, cloud and enterprise data centers.

"Mellanox’s 40Gb/s InfiniBand technology delivers the highest throughput, lowest latency and highest message rate available in networking technology ensuring major productivity benefits for enterprise and scientific computing users," said John Monson, vice president of marketing at Mellanox Technologies. "The combination of Mellanox ConnectX-2 adapters and Dell M-Series Blades provides a simplified, cost-effective solution for data center performance requirements, all while reducing capital expense."

ConnectX-2 with Virtual Intelligent Queuing (Virtual-IQ) technology provides dedicated adapter resources and guaranteed isolation and protection for virtual machines (VM) within the server. I/O virtualization over InfiniBand gives data center managers better server utilization and LAN and SAN unification while reducing cost, power, and cable complexity.

"Dell’s blade servers are designed to help reduce I/O capital expenses while providing IT and cluster administrators with greater bandwidth performance, better CPU utilization, and more efficient use of their data center space, and Mellanox’s InfiniBand adapter helps us to deliver these gains", said Sally Stevens, vice president, product group platform marketing at Dell. "Customers with resource-intensive application demands for high-bandwidth and low-latency can leverage blade solutions to improve system efficiency and resource utilization, while still reducing power and overhead costs."
