InfiniBand Networking
The Backbone of Next-Generation AI Supercomputing
InfiniBand Networking
InfiniBand Networking is used to support next-generation performance and scalability. We built our NVIDIA Quantum InfiniBand Cluster Networking with QM9700 and QM9790
Designed for high performance work
Accelerated In-Network Processing
InfiniBand leverages technologies like NVIDIA SHARP to offload collective communication tasks directly to the network switches. This reduces the volume of data moving across the network, shortens the duration of MPI operations, and boosts data center efficiency.
Enhanced Service Quality
InfiniBand delivers superior quality of service through advanced congestion management and adaptive routing. These capabilities guarantee efficient, reliable data transmission and maintain optimal network performance, even under heavy workloads.
Flexible Topology Support
InfiniBand provides centralized management and supports a wide variety of network topologies. Its flexible routing algorithms allow organizations to optimize network performance for specific application communication patterns.
The NVIDIA Quantum InfiniBand Platform
InfiniBand Adapters
The NVIDIA ConnectX-7 InfiniBand adapter supports PCIe Gen5, offers multiple form factors, and delivers single or dual network ports with speeds up to 400Gb/s
Optical Transceivers and Optic Cables
Use OSFP transceivers and OSFP cables deliver high bandwidth, low latency, and reliable connectivity between InfiniBand components
MQM9700-NS2F
High Scalability
Features 32 OSFP ports that flexibly break out into 64x400GbE configurations, supporting large-scale clusters of up to 2,000 nodes
Ultra-Low Latency
Achieves a massive 25.6 Tb/s total throughput, accelerated by RDMA and NVIDIA SHARP In-Network Computing for ultra-low latency and peak application performance
Energy Efficiency
Advanced power-saving features to minimize energy usage and lower operating expenses
Robust Hardware Reliability
Ensures maximum uptime with a compact 1U design, redundant hot-swappable power and fans, and a self-healing network for up to 5000x faster failure recovery
Difference between 9700 and 9790
9700 is managed: built-in NOS, subnet manager, management port. 9790 is unmanaged: no CPU/NOS, configured via mlxconfig
Actual use scenarios
