Ultimately I am trying to dumb down the 100GE/200E port on the CX6 and connect it directly into a switch that only supports 10GE…
I have looked at the QSA (40GE to 10GE), but I’m not sure if this is supported or if it will provide the stepdown to 10GE, since it uses only 1 of 4 lanes, and I believe the CX6 lanes run at either 25Gbps (NRZ) or 50Gbps (PAM)…
Any thoughts on converting the CX6 ports to support 10GE ?
Many TIA…
Hello Steven,
Thank you for posting your question on the NVIDIA/Mellanox Community.
You can find all supported QSA adapters and cables for the ConnectX-6 VPI through the following link → https://docs.mellanox.com/display/ConnectX6Firmwarev20276008/Firmware+Compatible+Products
This is the RN for our latest f/w which will describe the supported cables and QSA adapters included restrictions.
Thank you,
