NVIDIA ConnectX-8 C8240 SuperNIC

The NVIDIA ConnectX-8 C8240 is a half-height half-length network interface card designed for high-performance computing and data-centre fabrics. It delivers dual-port connectivity at 400GbE or NDR InfiniBand speeds through a PCIe 6 x16 interface.

Suited for dual-port 400GbE

This card fits builders who need two QSFP112 ports running at 400GbE or NDR InfiniBand in a compact HHHL slot. It is not for buyers who require a single-port design, a different connector type, or a lower-speed link.

PCIe 6 x16 with optional x16 SocketDirect extension

The card uses a PCIe 6 x16 edge connector and offers an optional x16 PCIe SocketDirect extension for specialised topologies. Verify that your platform provides a PCIe 6 x16 slot and the physical clearance for the extension before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the QSFP112 transceivers need periodic replacement?

The card uses dual-port QSFP112 cages; transceivers are hot-pluggable modules you replace only if a link fails or you change media type.

What limits sustained throughput on the PCIe 6 x16 host link?

The x16 lane width at PCIe 6 speed sets the host-bus ceiling for the dual 400GbE ports.

How much heat does the HHHL card produce under continuous load?

The half-height half-length form factor relies on server chassis airflow; no onboard fan is fitted.
