With an integrated Ethernet gateway which bridges traffic between Ethernet-based networks via an InfiniBand switch, the Voltaire 4036E is one of many new developments we will soon witness utilsing ...

The industry's first InfiniBand switch, aimed at reducing the complexity of server clustering and increasing throughput speeds, begins shipping Monday.

This stands in contrast to the first 15 years or so of InfiniBand technology, during which sufficient innovation was attained simply by driving down port-to-port hop latency within the switch or ...

Eventually, Mellanox will roll out 200 Gb/sec Ethernet, probably under the Spectrum 2 name, and there is no reason that techniques for MPI offloading to the switch cannot be added to these machines; ...

A start-up called Topspin Communications is using InfiniBand networking processors from Mellanox to build a 72-port InfiniBand switch.

InfiniBand's new form factor makes it easier to add, remove, and upgrade than today's shared-bus I/O cards. Instead of installing and removing cards from a bus, InfiniBand provides a single interface ...

Nvidia is advancing its networking technology by integrating co-packaged optics (CPO) into its Quantum InfiniBand and Spectrum Ethernet switch, a move expected to reduce power consumption and cost ...

Switch-Node Applications The chip can be deployed as InfiniBand switch nodes that make up the fabric core. Each switch node has a throughput delay of roughly 100 ns with a 95% throughput efficiency.

There’s no need for a network interface card between an InfiniBand server and an InfiniBand switch, Vickers says. “If you eliminate enough of them, you can start powering some homes.” ...

The InfiniBand switch fabric has broad support of industry leaders in silicon, software, and systems. Bridge and switch products offer dramatic performance, RAS, and scaling benefits, while allowing ...

The InfiniBand I/O specification is complete, and vendors are off busily designing new products that will make running servers and large data centers much easier than it is now.
