FAQs

Q: Which Cisco HyperFlex platforms support the HX-GPU-A10?
A: The HX-GPU-A10 is supported on Cisco HyperFlex M6 platforms including HX240c M6, HX220c M6, and HX245c M6 nodes. It can be installed in PCIe Gen4 x16 or x8 slots across multiple risers, with some configurations supporting up to five A10 GPUs per node. Compatible with HX Data Platform Release 5.0(2b) and later.

Q: What are the primary use cases for the NVIDIA A10 GPU?
A: The A10 is designed for AI inference workloads, virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), graphics-rich virtual workstations running CAD and design applications, rendering farms, data science, and video encoding/decoding. It bridges the gap between dedicated inference accelerators and high-end training GPUs, offering versatile performance for multi-tenant data center environments.

Q: Does the HX-GPU-A10 require special power or cooling?
A: The A10 uses passive cooling and requires a single 8-pin PCIe power connector. It must be installed in a server chassis with adequate airflow to dissipate the 150W thermal load. Cisco HyperFlex servers with compatible riser configurations and proper heatsinks (low-profile heatsink HX-HSLP-M6) provide the necessary cooling infrastructure.

Q: Can the A10 GPU be used for virtualized workloads?
A: Yes, the A10 supports NVIDIA vGPU software including vPC, vApps, RTX Virtual Workstation (vWS), and Virtual Compute Server. This enables GPU sharing across multiple virtual machines for VDI, virtual workstations, and compute workloads, making it ideal for multi-tenant enterprise and cloud environments.

Q: How does the A10 compare to other NVIDIA data center GPUs?
A: The A10 offers a balance between the entry-level T4 and high-end A100. It provides over 2.5x more Tensor performance than the T4, supports PCIe Gen4 for increased bandwidth, and includes 24GB of memory suitable for medium-sized AI models and graphics workloads. Its 150W power envelope makes it more efficient than higher-performance GPUs while maintaining strong inference and visualization capabilities.
