■
Legacy I/O devices such as video cards are only supported on slots 1, 2, 3, 4 and 8.
■
The Cisco Card NIC mode is currently supported only with a Cisco 1225 VIC
■
(UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02) that is installed in PCIe slot 1.
The C460 server accommodates the Cisco 1225 Virtual Interface card, which is supported
■
only in slots 1 and 2.

Cisco UCS C460 M2 High-Performance Rack-Mount Server
Only one Cisco 1225 VIC can be used for both UCSM management and data traffic in
the C460 M2 server
The Cisco 1225 VIC in slot 1 handles management and data traffic.
If a second Cisco 1225 VIC is installed in slot 2, it will be used for data traffic only.
This is due to the standby power supplied only to slot 1.
Supports 10G SFP+ optical and copper twinax connections
To use the Cisco Card NIC mode, this card must be installed in PCIe slot 1. Slot 1 can
operate while the server is in standby power mode.
Requires that the server has CIMC firmware version 1.4(6) or later installed. There is
a heartbeat LED on the top of the card that indicates when firmware is active.
To use this card for UCS integration (Cisco UCS Manager mode) with Cisco UCS
Manager 2.1(0) or later, the minimum card-firmware and uboot image level is
2.1(0.306).
