Are ConnectX-6 Dx 100GE 2P NIC and Mellanox network adapter are same?

in one of the HPE server inventory we observed one NIC card is different than others,
What may went wrong here ? is the below picture slot1 expected to be ConnectX-6 Dx 100GE 2P NIC, but it is showing Mellanox network adapter, is it cosmic error or some wrong adapter may be inserted in that slot or network plugin unit is missing ?

Hello praveen,

Thank you for posting your inquiry on the NVIDIA Developer Forum - Infrastructure and Networking - Section.

The issue you are facing can have different root causes.

  • Hardware has limitation regarding the quantity of network adapters support in the system and under the installed OS
  • Adapter is faulty. Triage step would be moving the adapter to another slot and see if the issue follows the adapter
  • PCI Slot faulty. Same triage steps as previous bullet. If issue resides with slot, slot is malfunctioning and support should be obtained by HPE

Thank you and regards,
