The Cisco UCS VIC 1440 (Figure 3) is a single-port 40-Gbps or 4x10-Gbps Ethernet/FCoE capable modular LAN On Motherboard (mLOM) designed for Cisco UCS B-Series M5 and M6 Blade Servers. When used in combination with an optional port expander, the Cisco UCS VIC 1440 capabilities are enabled for two ports of 40-Gbps Ethernet. The Cisco UCS VIC 1440 enables a policy-based, stateless, agile server infrastructure that can present to the host PCIe standards-compliant interfaces that can be dynamically configured as either NICs or HBAs.
