Low Latency Internet Network Switch , High Bandwidth Mellanox InfiniBand Blade Switch

Mellanox InfiniBand Blade Switch

Add high-bandwidth, low-latency InfiniBand switches to the Dell M1000e blade chassis.

With the Mellanox InfiniBand blade switch, the DellTM M1000e blade chassis delivers maximum data throughput. Designed for low-latency, high-bandwidth applications in high-performance computing (HPC) and high-performance data center environments, InfiniBand switches offer 16 internal and 16 external ports to eliminate common bottlenecks in other switch designs.

Choose from three single-width Mellanox InfiniBand blade switches, each offering non-blocking throughput and compliance with IBTA management practices:

Mellanox M4001T FDR10 InfiniBand Blade Switch
Bit rate per port: 41.25 Gb/s
Data throughput per port: 40 Gb/s

Mellanox M4001F FDR InfiniBand Blade Switch
Bit rate per port: 56.25 Gb/s
Data throughput per port: 54.54 Gb/s
