Key Features
-
Virtual Protocol Interconnect (VPI): The single QSFP+ port can be configured to run either FDR InfiniBand (56Gb/s) for the lowest latency or 40/56GbE Ethernet for broad data center compatibility.
-
High-Speed Throughput: Delivers up to 56Gb/s of bandwidth, making it ideal for the most data-intensive applications.
-
RDMA Performance: Supports advanced offload engines, including RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE), to reduce CPU overhead and significantly improve system efficiency.
-
Bare Card: This is a cost-effective option for users who already have a compatible mounting bracket or are using a custom chassis.
