Description
Product Overview of Adapter
The TH2MW Dell Mellanox Connectx-3 VPI Network Adapter is a low profile Infiniband FDR (Fourteen Data Rate) network adapter designed to provide high-speed networking capabilities to data centers and high-performance computing clusters. It is specifically designed to offer high bandwidth and low latency interconnects for the most demanding applications, such as high-performance computing, machine learning, and big data analytics.
In this article, we will explain in detail the features and benefits of the TH2MW DELL Mellanox Connectx-3 VPI Network Adapter, its technical specifications, and its applications in modern data centers and high-performance computing environments.
Features and Benefits of Connectx-3 VPI Network Adapter
The TH2MW Dell Mellanox Connectx-3 VPI Network Adapter offers a wide range of features and benefits that make it an ideal solution for high-performance computing and data center environments. Some of the key features and benefits of this network adapter include:
High Bandwidth and Low Latency Interconnects
The TH2MW Dell Mellanox Connectx-3 VPI Network Adapter is designed to provide high bandwidth and low latency interconnects for the most demanding applications. It supports up to 56Gb/s InfiniBand and 40Gb/s Ethernet data rates, making it ideal for applications that require high-speed data transfer and low latency interconnects.
Virtual Protocol Interconnect (VPI)
The TH2MW Dell Mellanox Connectx-3 VPI Network Adapter supports Virtual Protocol Interconnect (VPI) technology, which allows the network adapter to support both InfiniBand and Ethernet protocols. This means that the network adapter can be used in a wide range of applications that require either InfiniBand or Ethernet connectivity.
Low Profile Design
The TH2MW Dell Mellanox Connectx-3 VPI Network Adapter features a low profile design, which makes it ideal for use in servers and storage systems with limited space. The low profile design also allows for better airflow and cooling, which can help to improve the overall performance and reliability of the network adapter.
Advanced Network Virtualization
The TH2MW Dell Mellanox Connectx-3 VPI Network Adapter supports advanced network virtualization technologies such as SR-IOV (Single Root I/O Virtualization) and NIC Partitioning (NPAR). These technologies allow multiple virtual machines to share a single network adapter, which can help to reduce the number of network adapters required in a data center or high-performance computing cluster.
