Cisco UCS VIC 14425 4x25G mLOM Virtual Interface Card UCSX-V4-Q25GML

The Cisco UCS VIC 14425 (UCSX-V4-Q25GML) is a high-performance 4-port 25Gb mLOM Virtual Interface Card engineered for the Cisco UCS X210c M6 compute node. Designed to deliver fast and reliable unified fabric connectivity, this adapter provides up to 100 Gbps of total bandwidth, supporting demanding enterprise workloads, virtualization environments, and storage-heavy applications.

Built on Cisco’s Unified Fabric and Fabric Extender (FEX) technologies, the VIC 14425 consolidates data and storage traffic over a single, efficient architecture. Each of its four 25Gb Ethernet ports provides low-latency, high-bandwidth throughput and supports dynamic configuration as either standard NICs or HBAs, enabling flexible deployment across modern data center environments.

This mLOM card is specifically optimized for the UCS X-Series platform and integrates seamlessly with Cisco UCS Intelligent Fabric Modules (IFMs), providing secure boot support, stateless operation, and intelligent network provisioning.
