UCS-VIC-M82-8P is a Cisco UCS VIC 1280 Virtual Interface Card with 8 x 10G internal Ethernet and FCoE paths in a mezzanine form factor for UCS B200 M3 and UCS B22 M3 blade servers. 256 virtual interfaces let the blade present NICs or HBAs through UCS Manager service profiles. The Cisco UCS B200 M3 network adapter installs in the mezzanine slot and needs a two-CPU blade because CPU 2 controls that connector. UCS B420 M4 uses Adapter 3, and UCS B200 M4 uses the VIC 1240 and VIC 1280 pairing only with the 12xx series path. UCSB-VIC-M83-8P is the 13xx mezzanine sibling for servers built with a VIC 1340 mLOM and 6200 or 6300 fabric interconnects.
UCS-VIC-M82-8P price for new stock is $39.35. UCS-VIC-M82-8P refurb price is $75.06. UCS-VIC-M82-8P is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

8 x 10G KR links route through the blade midplane to fabric extenders, with 40 Gbps per fabric extender on UCS B200 M4 when VIC 1240 and VIC 1280 are paired behind 2304 or 2208XP modules. 256 PCIe interfaces give the operating system separate NIC or HBA devices without SR-IOV dependence. FCoE capability lets Ethernet and storage traffic share the unified fabric. UCS-VIC-M82-8P reports through UCS Manager inventory and service profiles. UCS B22 M3 labels the physical connector as Mezz1 and the UCS Manager slot as Adapter 2. UCS B420 M4 places the card in Adapter 3, while Adapter 1 stays reserved for a VIC 1240 or VIC 1340 mLOM. UCS 2104XP ignores the B200 M4 slot 2 I/O card, so that chassis path keeps the mezzanine link unused.
Order new sealed for sealed spares, or order certified refurbished when a bench-tested blade adapter is acceptable. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested in a compatible host, with firmware version verified. Specify UCS-VIC-M82-8P with the target blade generation, mezzanine slot and fabric extender type before the PO. Cisco service ended on 29 February 2024, so ORM's warranty is the cover that applies. New sealed carries up to 3-year extended warranty; certified refurbished carries up to 1 year, with 30 days on every condition, terms apply. UK, EU, US and MEA regional stock support RMA with advance replacement; PO accepted and Net-30 for government.

A buyer maintaining UCS B200 M3 or UCS B22 M3 blades after 29 February 2024 needs a like-for-like VIC 1280 spare. The mezzanine slot and two-CPU rule decide fit, so the PO should state UCS-VIC-M82-8P, blade generation and slot name.
A failed mezzanine network adapter in a UCS B200 M3 interrupts both Ethernet and FCoE virtual interfaces. UCS-VIC-M82-8P restores the 8 x 10G internal VIC 1280 path. Before the PO, confirm the blade has two CPUs and the mezzanine connector populated.
A UCS B200 M4 estate using VIC 1240 and VIC 1280 pairing needs fabric-extender alignment before adding spares. 2304 and 2208XP paths carry the slot 2 I/O card, while 2104XP ignores it. Specify the fabric extender and CPU count before the PO.
One CPU M3 blade
UCS B200 M3 and UCS B22 M3 need two CPUs for the mezzanine connector. Use UCSB-MLOM-40G-01 in the dedicated mLOM slot for a one-CPU blade.
VIC 1340 mLOM pairing
UCS B200 M4 with a VIC 1340 mLOM does not take a VIC 1280. Use UCSB-VIC-M83-8P as the mezzanine adapter for that 13xx pairing.
UCS 2104XP slot 2 I/O
UCS B200 M4 ignores the slot 2 I/O card with 2104XP fabric extenders. Use the VIC 1240 path alone or move the blade to 2208XP or 2304.

UCS-VIC-M82-8P is the Cisco UCS VIC 1280 mezzanine adapter for blade servers. It is an 8 x 10G internal Ethernet and FCoE Virtual Interface Card. UCS-VIC-M82-8P= is the spare ordering form for the same adapter.
UCS-VIC-M82-8P fits UCS B200 M3, UCS B22 M3, UCS B200 M4 and UCS B420 M4 blade server configurations that provide the required mezzanine slot. UCS B200 M3 and UCS B22 M3 need two CPUs for the mezzanine connector.
A UCS B22 M3 uses UCSB-MLOM-40G-01 in Adapter 1 and can use UCS-VIC-M82-8P in Adapter 2. The same Adapter 2 connector also takes UCSB-MEZ-QLG-03 or UCSB-MEZ-ELX-03 for converged network adapter builds.
UCS-VIC-M82-8P has 8 x 10G internal ports, an internal blade connector, a mezzanine form factor and a PCIe x16 host path in the B200 M4 layout. It provides 256 virtual interfaces and carries Ethernet plus FCoE traffic.
UCS-VIC-M82-8P is an 8 x 10G internal mezzanine adapter. On UCS B200 M4 with VIC 1240 and 2304 or 2208XP fabric extenders, the card contributes to 40 Gbps per fabric extender. The far end must match the blade fabric path.
UCS-VIC-M82-8P uses the mezzanine connector. UCS B22 M3 calls that connector Adapter 2 in UCS Manager and Mezz1 on the motherboard. UCS B420 M4 uses Adapter 3, and UCS B200 M4 uses Adapter slot 2.
UCS-VIC-M82-8P is managed through UCS Manager service profiles and inventory. UCS B200 M4 with E5-2600 v3 CPUs requires UCSM 2.2(3) or later, while v4 CPU builds require 2.2(7b) or later and 3.1(1g) or later.
UCS-VIC-M82-8P carries Ethernet and Fibre Channel over Ethernet on the unified fabric. Its virtual interfaces can appear to the operating system as NICs or HBAs, and the VIC 1280 supports Adapter FEX and VM-FEX functions.
Order UCS-VIC-M82-8P for the base adapter. Order UCS-VIC-M82-8P= when the PO needs the spare form. Cisco-remanufactured hardware is separate from ORM certified refurbished condition, and the PO should carry the exact PID required.
UCSB-VIC-M83-8P is the 13xx mezzanine adapter for VIC 1340 mLOM builds and 6200 or 6300 fabric interconnects. UCS-VIC-M82-8P is the VIC 1280 mezzanine adapter for 12xx paths and M3 blade mezzanine slots.
UCSB-MLOM-40G-01 is the VIC 1240 mLOM adapter in the dedicated Adapter 1 slot. UCS-VIC-M82-8P is the VIC 1280 mezzanine card with 8 x 10G internal links. Use the mLOM card for one-CPU M3 blades.
Cisco stopped selling UCS-VIC-M82-8P on 14 February 2019, and Cisco service ended on 29 February 2024. The product serves UCS B-Series blade server mezzanine configurations, and the affected-products table names no replacement product.
ORM offers UCS-VIC-M82-8P as new sealed with up to 3-year extended warranty or certified refurbished with up to 1 year. Cisco service ended on 29 February 2024, so ORM's warranty is the cover that applies. Returns are 30 days on every condition, terms apply.
