The Cisco UCS Virtual Interface Card 15231 (VIC 15231) is a dual-port 100GbE modular network adapter designed for Cisco UCS C-Series rack servers. This latest-generation VIC leverages PCIe 4.0 architecture to deliver high-bandwidth connectivity while maintaining the flexibility of virtualized networking through support for up to 256 virtual interfaces per adapter.
The VIC 15231 consolidates network and storage traffic onto a single adapter, reducing physical slot consumption and simplifying server deployment. It supports both Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and native iSCSI, enabling unified fabric architectures that streamline data center operations and reduce operational complexity.
Targeted at enterprise and financial services organizations standardized on Cisco UCS infrastructure, the VIC 15231 addresses high-performance computing, virtualized workloads, and latency-sensitive applications requiring maximum throughput and deterministic performance in modern data center environments.
