What is the switching performance?

The switch offers 2.88Tbps aggregate bandwidth and non-blocking switching capacity, ensuring full line-rate per port. With True Scale architecture, it maintains scalable performance up to maximum MTU of 4096 bytes and 1024 multicast entries.

Does it support low-latency operations?

Yes, it delivers ultra-low latency under heavy loads with predictable performance, even at 90% utilization. Multiple virtual lanes (8+1) enable QoS and partitioning for consistent HPC workloads without extensive tuning.

What management options are available?

As a managed edge switch, it supports internal or external management via InfiniBand Fabric Suite, including subnet manager, SNMP, and chassis UI. Access via 10/100 Ethernet or serial port for comprehensive fabric views.

What is the physical form factor?

1U rack-mountable (1.7 x 17.3 x 24 inches) with included rails and dual 275W AC-DC power supplies. Operates in 5-90% humidity, 0-40,000 ft altitude, minimizing cooling and power needs in datacenters.

Is it compatible with existing InfiniBand setups?

Fully compatible, protecting investments with QDR/DDR/SDR support and IBTA-compliant features. Virtual fabric partitioning allows integration into larger fabrics as an edge switch for workgroup resources.
