Nvidia Mellanox ConnectX-6 MCX654106A-ECAT User Manual page 12

ConnectX-6 Socket Direct cards are available in two configurations: Dual-slot Configuration (2x PCIe
x16) and Single-slot Configuration (2x PCIe x8).
ConnectX-6 Dual-slot Socket Direct Cards (2x PCIe x16)
In order to obtain 200Gb/s speed, Mellanox offers ConnectX-6 Socket Direct that enable 200Gb/s
connectivity also for servers with PCIe Gen 3.0 capability. The adapter's 32-lane PCIe bus is split into
two 16-lane buses, with one bus accessible through a PCIe x16 edge connector and the other bus
through an x16 Auxiliary PCIe Connection card. The two cards should be installed into two PCIe x16
slots and connected using two Cabline SA-II Plus harnesses, as shown in the below figure.
