Notes: a.The ConnectX-6 adapters supplement the IBTA auto-negotiation specification to get better
bit error rates and longer cable reaches. This supplemental feature only initiates when connected to
anotherNVIDIA InfiniBand product.
b.Typical power for ATIS traffic load.
c. For both operational and non-operational states.
