What is the Thermal Design Power (TDP) for the Mellanox ConnectX-4 dual port VPI 100 Gbps Infiniband cards?

I am asking because I am possibly thinking about putting one into the HP T740 thin client (so that it can run OpenSM for my switch) but I need to know what the TDP is for that card (MCX456A-ECAT) so that I would be able to tell and plan on how to manage the system from a thermals perspective.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
