About This Part
The Mellanox MIC-3D-20GE-SFP is a high-density Multi-service Interface Card (MIC) engineered to deliver robust Gigabit Ethernet connectivity within compatible MX series routing platforms. This module integrates 20 independent 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet ports, each supporting auto-negotiation for flexible speed and duplex configuration. Designed for enterprise and service provider environments, the Part Number MIC-3D-20GE-SFP leverages Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceivers, enabling versatile fiber or copper connectivity options depending on the chosen optics (sold separately). Its primary function is to expand the port density and enhance the Ethernet switching capabilities of the host system, facilitating high-bandwidth data aggregation and distribution. The card ensures reliable data transmission and is crucial for network segments requiring scalable and efficient Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. This Mellanox MIC-3D-20GE-SFP module is typically deployed in core and edge routing platforms within large-scale data centers, telecommunications networks, and enterprise campus environments. It is essential for service providers requiring high-density Gigabit Ethernet access for customer premise equipment (CPE) or for interconnecting various network segments. Data center operators utilize these cards to provide server connectivity, inter-rack links, or to aggregate traffic from access switches. The module addresses the critical need for scalable and resilient network infrastructure, enabling operators to expand their service offerings or upgrade existing 100BASE-T infrastructure to Gigabit speeds without a complete chassis replacement. Its deployment facilitates the efficient handling of increasing data traffic volumes and supports the evolution towards more robust and higher-capacity network architectures.
