The Dell PowerSwitch Z9432F-ON 100/400GbE fixed switch consists of Dell’s latest disaggregated hardware and software data center networking solutions, providing state-of-the-art, high-density 100/400 GbE ports and a broad range of functionality to meet the growing demands of today’s data center environment. This innovative, next-generation open networking high-density aggregation switch offers optimum flexibility and cost-effectiveness for the Web 2.0, enterprise, mid-market, and cloud service providers with demanding compute and storage traffic environments.
NVIDIA NVLink is a fast, scalable interconnect that enables multi-GPU systems with seamless, high-speed communication between every GPU. The fourth generation of NVIDIA NVLink technology provides 1.5 times higher bandwidth and improved scalability for multi-GPU system configurations. A single NVIDIA H100 Tensor Core GPU supports up to 18 NVLink connections for a total bandwidth of 900 gigabytes per second (GB/s), over seven times the bandwidth of PCIe Gen5.
The NVIDIA Quantum-2-based QM9700 and QM9790 switch systems deliver 64 ports of NDR 400Gb/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.
