Cog is regular threading, so you're fine with that - I'm running an EAI on mine, if you care - however, lockring threading is FRENCH(!) so you'll need the Mavic lockring.
You may also need a spacer (I did). Go to a Mavic dealer and ask them to order you a set of lockrings and spacers - there's a specific spacer for this hub - and don't use any other lockring or you'll screw up (if you'll pardon the pun) the threading on your not-exactly-cheap hub.
Also, I corroborate briankwan's testimony - the Ellipse rear hub is definitely fixed on both sides. What I'm confused by is the fact that (although I'm assuming here) you didn't get the lockring and spacers included when you bought the wheels - I know I got two of each with mine.
