M42M08T22A1-CDTTEV, Mellanox BlueField-2 SoC, 8 cores/Dual 100GbE PCIe4.0/Crypto

The Mellanox NVIDIA Mellanox M42M08T22A1-CDTTEV is a high-performance BlueField-2 E-Series SoC accessory designed for modern data center and cloud infrastructure. It integrates Arm-based processing, high-speed networking, and hardware offload in a single solution to help reduce server CPU load and improve application performance. With dual 100GbE/EDR VPI ports, it supports both Ethernet and InfiniBand connectivity, giving operators in Asia, Europe, Africa, and North America flexibility to deploy it in different network architectures. The NVIDIA Mellanox M42M08T22A1-CDTTEV connects to the host over PCIe 3.0/4.0 x16, enabling high bandwidth and low latency between the server and the DPU. This makes it suitable for virtualized environments, software-defined storage, and high-performance computing clusters where predictable throughput is critical.

Built on the NVIDIA Mellanox BlueField-2 E-Series platform, the Mellanox NVIDIA Mellanox M42M08T22A1-CDTTEV offers 8 cores on the SoC to handle control plane tasks, security services, and data path acceleration without relying only on the host CPU. Integrated crypto capabilities in the BlueField-2 E-Series help offload encryption and decryption from the server, which supports secure multi-tenant workloads and compliance-sensitive applications. Distributors and system integrators can position this accessory as a key building block for secure, accelerated infrastructure, while end users gain simpler deployment and operational efficiency. The Mellanox NVIDIA Mellanox M42M08T22A1-CDTTEV is well suited for cloud service providers, enterprise data centers, and research networks that need consistent performance at 100GbE speeds with advanced offload for networking, storage, and security services.
