UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 is the Cisco UCS VIC 1225 PCIe Virtual Interface Card with two 10 Gbps SFP+ FCoE ports for UCS C-Series Rack Servers. The adapter presents 256 virtual interfaces, so one low-profile PCIe card carries Ethernet and FCoE paths through the same server slot. As a Cisco UCS C220 M4 network adapter, the Cisco VIC 1225 fits PCIE 1 and PCIE 2, with PCIE 1 used for UCS Manager integration and Cisco Card NIC mode. It also fits UCS C260 M2, C460 M2, C220 M3, C240 M3, C22 M3, C24 M3, C240 M4 and C460 M4. UCSC-PCIE-C10T-02 is the 10GBASE-T PCIe sibling for RJ-45 Category 6 cabling.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 price for new stock is $876.75. UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 refurb price is $30.45. UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 is in stock and available for free next-day delivery. (terms applied)

2 x 10-Gbps FCoE SFP+ ports run at 10-Gbps line rate per port and take SFP-10G-SR, SFP-10G-LR or copper SFP-H10GB-CU1M, SFP-H10GB-CU3M and SFP-H10GB-CU5M. PCIe 2.0 x16 host connectivity and a Cisco UCS custom ASIC make UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 a Virtual Interface Card rather than a third-party Ethernet NIC. 256 virtual interfaces present as NICs or HBAs, with about 8 reserved internally and the operating system or hypervisor able to reduce the usable count. 12W typical power lets C220 M4 slots stay below the 25W card threshold. UCS Manager Release 2.0(2), Cisco IMC 1.4(6) and VIC firmware 2.1(0) are the C220 M4 minimums for this card. Microsoft Windows, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux, VMware vSphere and Citrix XenServer are the OS families named for the adapter.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 carries new sealed and certified refurbished conditions. Certified refurbished testing verifies recognition by a compatible host and every port links at rated speed. Order two matching SFP+ modules or twinax cables, and confirm PCIE 1 or PCIE 2 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, and returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply. UK, EU, US and MEA stock, RMA with advance replacement, PO accepted and Net-30 for government apply.

The buyer maintaining UCS C220 M4, C240 M4 or C460 M4 servers after 29 February 2024 needs a like-for-like VIC 1225 spare. UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 keeps the 2 x 10G SFP+ PCIe slot design already cabled to the fabric. Confirm PCIE 1 or PCIE 2 and transceiver PIDs before the PO.
The buyer replacing a failed C220 M4 card needs the same PCIe VIC in the same slot. UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 preserves the 2 x 10G SFP+ cabling and the service-profile virtual interface design. Confirm the server inventory, PCIE 1 or PCIE 2, and VIC firmware 2.1(0) before the PO.
The buyer adding UCS C220 M4 uplinks needs the CPU count checked before the card is ordered. A 1-CPU server accepts one PCIe VIC in slot 1, while a 2-CPU server accepts two PCIe VICs in slots 1 and 2. Match each port with an SFP+ module or twinax cable.
mLOM slot requirement
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 is a PCIe card and does not seat in the C220 M4 mLOM connector; C220 M4 takes UCSC-MLOM-CSC-02 for 10Gb SFP+ mLOM.
RJ-45 10GBASE-T cabling
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 uses SFP+ cages and does not take RJ-45 Category 6 cables; C220 M4 takes UCSC-PCIE-C10T-02 for dual-port 10GBASE-T PCIe.
40Gb QSFP+ uplinks
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 runs 10Gb SFP+ ports; C220 M4 takes UCSC-PCIE-C40Q-03 for dual-port 40Gb QSFP+ PCIe with RDMA when the network side is 40Gb.

UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 is the Cisco VIC 1225 Dual Port 10Gb SFP+ CNA, a PCIe Virtual Interface Card for UCS C-Series Rack Servers. The model name is Cisco UCS VIC 1225. UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02= is the Cisco spare-order form, and UCSC-PCIE-CSC02-RF is Cisco-remanufactured, not ORM certified refurbished.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 fits UCS C260 M2, C460 M2, C220 M3, C240 M3, C22 M3, C24 M3, C220 M4, C240 M4 and C460 M4 rack servers. In a C220 M4, PCIE 1 is primary for UCS Manager integration and Cisco Card NIC mode.
A UCS C220 M4 uses UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 as a PCIe Cisco VIC 1225 10Gb SFP+ Virtual Interface Card. The same C220 M4 PCIe option set has UCSC-PCIE-C10T-02 for 10GBaseT and UCSC-PCIE-C40Q-03 for 40Gb QSFP+ with RDMA. The mLOM 10Gb SFP+ option is UCSC-MLOM-CSC-02.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 has 2 x 10-Gbps FCoE SFP+ ports, PCIe 2.0 x16 host connectivity, 12W typical power, 167.6 mm depth and 63.5 mm width. The half-height PCIe form factor fits C-Series rack server PCIe slots, with C220 M4 slot count set by CPU count.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 runs 10-Gbps line rate per port across two SFP+ ports. The far end must match 10G SFP+ optics or 10GBASE-CU twinax. Use SFP-10G-SR or SFP-10G-LR for fiber, or SFP-H10GB-CU1M, SFP-H10GB-CU3M or SFP-H10GB-CU5M for copper.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 takes SFP-10G-SR and SFP-10G-LR optical modules in the C220 M4 accessory set. The adapter media set also has SFP-10G-USR. For copper twinax in C220 M4, order SFP-H10GB-CU1M, SFP-H10GB-CU3M or SFP-H10GB-CU5M. The card ships without optics.
Two UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 PCIe cards fit in a 2-CPU UCS C220 M4 in PCIE 1 and PCIE 2. A 1-CPU C220 M4 accepts one plug-in PCIe VIC in slot 1. PCIE 1 is primary for UCS Manager integration and Cisco Card NIC mode.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 needs Cisco IMC 1.4(6) minimum and VIC firmware 2.1(0) minimum in a UCS C220 M4. UCS Manager Release 2.0(2) is the adapter management floor. The C220 M4 VIC feature set uses Cisco IMC 2.0.6 and UCS Manager 2.2.5a.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 provides 256 virtual interfaces, with about 8 reserved for internal use. The interfaces can present as NICs or HBAs. The card also carries VM-FEX, Cisco SingleConnect, priority flow control, 9 KB jumbo frames and hardware-based fabric failover for UCS C-Series rack server designs.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 is the base PID. UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02= is the Cisco spare form, and UCSC-PCIE-CSC02-RF is the Cisco-remanufactured form. Cisco-remanufactured is separate from ORM certified refurbished. The base card, spare form and remanufactured form use the same Cisco VIC 1225 Dual Port 10Gb SFP+ CNA description.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 uses dual 10Gb SFP+ ports, while UCSC-PCIE-C10T-02 uses dual 10GBaseT RJ-45 ports. Choose UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 for SFP+ optics or twinax. Choose UCSC-PCIE-C10T-02 when the C220 M4 cabling is Category 6 or better twisted pair.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 is a dual-port 10Gb SFP+ VIC 1225, while UCSC-PCIE-C40Q-03 is a Cisco VIC 1385 dual-port 40Gb QSFP+ CNA with RDMA. Choose UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 for existing 10G SFP+ fabric. Choose UCSC-PCIE-C40Q-03 when the C220 M4 build needs 40Gb QSFP+ uplinks.
UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 is a PCIe card for riser slots, while UCSC-MLOM-CSC-02 is a 10Gb SFP+ mLOM card for the C220 M4 internal mLOM connector. Choose UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 for PCIE 1 or PCIE 2. Choose UCSC-MLOM-CSC-02 when the mLOM slot is the target.
Cisco stopped selling UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 on 14 February 2019, and Cisco service ended on 29 February 2024. The card serves the C-Series rack server host set named for the VIC 1225, with M4 C220, C240 and C460 hosts sharing the same 29 February 2024 service end. No replacement product is named for UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02.
ORM offers UCSC-PCIE-CSC-02 in new sealed and certified refurbished conditions. 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, and returns are 30 days on every condition; terms apply.
