Advanced infiniband solutions for HPC & Data centers
InfiniBand is a switched fabric computer network communications link used in high-performance computing and enterprise data centers.Its features include high throughput, low latency, quality of service and failover, and it is designed to be scalable. The InfiniBand architecture specification defines a connection between processor nodes and high performance I/O nodes such as storage devices. We offer Mellanox wide infiniband solutions which include cards, switches and all the neccessary cables. Supermicro solutions include: InfiniBand Switch Modules which are switch-based, point-to-point bi-directional serial link systems. They provide high-speed interconnectivity among the blade modules and to external InfiiniBand peripherals and are especially useful in supporting clustered High-Performance-Computing. For even faster connections, Supermicro offers three different InfiniBand connectivity options. A powerful new series of QDR InfiniBand switches (SBM-IBS-Q3618, SBM-IBS-Q3618M, SBM-IBS-Q3616, and SBM-IBS-Q3616M) provide connection from Blades to 4X QDR (40-Gbps) InfiniBand networks - the fastest networking technology available for commercial use. Other InfiniBand options include a 4X DDR switch (SBM-IBS-001) and a 14-port 4X DDR Pass-Through module (SBM-IBP-D14). All SuperBlade® networking options are hot-pluggable
