  We study vortexlike solutions in a generalized Born-Infeld model. The model
is driven by two distinct parameters, one which deals with the Born-Infeld
term, and the other, which controls the presence of high-order power term in
the covariant derivative of the Higgs field. We numerically solve the equations
of motion and depict the main vortex features, for several values of the two
parameters of the model. The results indicate the presence of compact vortex,
when the parameter responsible for the high-order power in the derivative
increases to sufficiently large values.
