There are multiple options for the mezzanine slot:
■ I/O-based PCIe adapters (such as network adapters), or
■ Cisco Storage Accelerator adapters (such as Fusion-io cards)
Specific examples of mezzanine adapters are:
■ Cisco adapters
— VIC 1380/1280
— Port Expander Card for VIC
■ Cisco Storage Accelerator adapters
— Cisco UCS 785 GB MLC Fusion-io ioDrive2
— Cisco UCS 1300 GB Fusion ioMemory3 PX Performance line
— Cisco UCS 1600 GB Fusion ioMemory3 SX Scale line
The following sections explain the various I/O options that are possible with the different Fabric Extenders
(Cisco UCS 2208XP, 2204XP, and 2104XP) and the VIC 1340/1240 and mezzanine adapters.
NOTE: In a B200 M4 configured with 1 or 2 CPUs, a UCS B200 M4 blade server must
have a VIC 1340/1240 installed to provide I/O connectivity.
