PCIe Bracket for Connect-X EN2

Hi there, I have a Mellanox ConnectX-2 EN 10GbE PCI-E G2 DP NIC HPC MNPH29D-XTR adapter, and It came with a half-size PCIe bracket, but I need a full size bracket. Is there any way I can buy one? Thanks!

Hi,

I’ll recommend contacting one of Mellanox sales department,depending on your regional.

You can get a full-height bracket for your ConnectX-2 EN card. The bracket that comes in the box is just the low-profile/half-height one for small cases.

In point of view two good options:

  • Order a spare/full-height bracket from Mellanox (or vendor support) some sellers will send you a replacement part if you ask (same PCI bracket style but full height). This is the cleanest solution if you want an exact fit.
  • Use a generic full-height PCIe bracket — most PCIe NICs use standard bracket mounting holes, so a generic full-height bracket will typically work fine on your card. Many online stores sell these cheap.
