NVIDIA Mellanox Quantum QM9700

The NVIDIA Quantum-2-based QM9700 switch system delivers an unprecedented 64 ports of NDR 400 Gb/s InfiniBand per port in a 1U standard chassis design. A single switch carries an aggregated bidirectional throughput of 51.2 terabits per second (Tb/s), with a landmark of more than 66.5 billion packets per second (BPPS) capacity. Supporting the NDR technology, NVIDIA Quantum-2 brings a high-speed, extremely low-latency and scalable solution that incorporates state-of-the-art technologies such as Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA), adaptive routing, and NVIDIA Scalable Hierarchical Aggregation and Reduction Protocol (SHARP). Unlike any other networking solution, NVIDIA InfiniBand provides self-healing network capabilities, as well as quality of service (QoS), enhanced virtual lane (VL) mapping, and congestion control to provide the highest overall application throughput. As an ideal rack-mounted InfiniBand solution, the QM9700 NDR InfiniBand fixed-configuration switch allows maximum flexibility, as they enable a variety of topologies, including Fat Tree, SlimFly, DragonFly+, multi-dimensional Torus, and more.Today's complex research demands ultra-fast processing of high-resolution simulations, extreme-size datasets, and complex, highly parallelized algorithms that need to exchange information in real time. The QM9700 NDR InfiniBand switches extend NVIDIA In-Network Computing technologies and introduce the third generation of NVIDIA SHARP technology, SHARPv3. Creating virtually unlimited scalability for large data aggregation through the data center network, participating in the application's runtime and reducing the amount of data needed to traverse the network.By implementing NVIDIA port-split technology, the QM9700 switch provides a double-density radix for 200 Gb/s (NDR200) data speeds, reducing the cost of network design and network topologies.The internally managed QM9700 switch features an on-board subnet manager that enables simple, out-of-the-box bringup for up to 2,000 nodes.
