Product Description
The NVIDIA Mellanox ConnectX-6 Dx EN MCX623106PE-CDAT is a dual-port 100GbE network adapter that adds hardware-based cryptographic acceleration to the ConnectX-6 Dx platform, targeting security-conscious enterprise, cloud and service-provider deployments. Operating over a PCIe 4.0 x16 host interface, it delivers two 100GbE QSFP56 ports with RoCE v2 RDMA offload for low-latency, high-throughput data movement. The onboard Crypto engine offloads inline data-in-motion encryption workloads (such as IPsec/TLS acceleration) from the host CPU, reducing overhead for organizations that must encrypt network traffic at line rate. Hardware support for PPS In/Out enables precise time synchronization for latency-sensitive, telemetry-aware applications. Combined with SR-IOV, overlay network offloads and storage acceleration, the MCX623106PE-CDAT is well suited for organizations that need both high-performance networking and hardware-accelerated security in the same adapter, without sacrificing throughput or CPU headroom for application workloads.
