End-to-end capability
Check adapter, PCIe slot, switch port, transceiver and cable speed and compatibility, not switch specifications alone.
CONNECT / SCALE
High-Speed Networking
Select adapters, switches, optics and cables as a complete link.
Hardware and application reference imageryPRODUCT PLANNING
From shared storage to multi-node compute, networks must match application traffic. Bandwidth, latency, topology, switching capacity and management together determine practical capability.
From specifications to configuration
Traffic & topology
Separate production, management, storage and node-interconnect traffic; assess uplink aggregation and oversubscription.
RDMA assessment
RoCE requires compatible adapters, switching configuration and congestion control. Validate against need; not every AI deployment requires it.
Connections & maintenance
Record ports, modules, distances and cable labels, with monitoring, spares and upgrade plans.
Brand directions to compare
Compare against product and technical requirements; supply is subject to confirmation.
Prepare for an enquiry
Provide platform and software versions, workload, target capacity or performance, quantity, budget, location and timing, plus any specified part numbers or compatibility lists.
Scope and deliverables
Discuss selection, bills of materials, samples and procurement on a project basis. Model availability, implementation, installation and validation scope require agreement after requirements review.
