Cisco UCSX-GPU-T4-MEZZ | UCS X-Series T4 GPU Module, 16GB GDDR6, 75W Mezzanine

Q: Which Cisco UCS servers support the UCSX-GPU-T4-MEZZ?
A: This mezzanine GPU module is designed for Cisco UCS X-Series compute nodes, specifically the UCS X210c M6. The front mezzanine GPU cage (UCSX-X10C-GPUFM) can accommodate up to two T4 GPU modules, each connecting via PCIe Gen3 x8 interface.

Q: What workloads is the T4 GPU optimized for?
A: The NVIDIA T4 excels at AI inference, machine learning inference, video transcoding (up to 38 simultaneous 1080p streams), virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), natural language processing, and recommendation systems. Its Tensor Cores accelerate mixed-precision FP16 and INT8 operations for efficient inference at scale.

Q: How is the UCSX-GPU-T4-MEZZ cooled?
A: This GPU module uses passive cooling, relying on the UCS X-Series server's integrated airflow and thermal management. The 75W TDP enables efficient operation without dedicated fans, reducing noise and power consumption in dense data center deployments.

Q: Can I mix different GPU models in the same UCS X-Series server?
A: No, GPU models cannot be mixed on a single Cisco UCS X-Series server. If deploying multiple GPUs, all installed modules must be the same model (e.g., all T4 GPUs).

Q: What management tools are used with this GPU module?
A: The UCSX-GPU-T4-MEZZ is managed through the Cisco Intersight cloud-based management platform in Intersight Managed Mode (IMM), providing unified configuration, monitoring, and lifecycle management for GPU-accelerated UCS X-Series infrastructure.
