Advances to the Infini. Band Ecosystem … Coming Soon!
Innovation at the host …. • Increased number of “IB Down” motherboards and blades • DDR cards for HTX bus • Increased message rates and decreased latency for DDR • Cards that can be configured to Infini. Band or 10 Gig. E • Quad Data Rate (QDR) – 40 • New Cabling solutions including: • Fiber that is cost competitive with copper • Active copper • QSFP connectors (vs. CX 4 today) 9/26/2020 QLogic Confidential 11
