- 7.2Tb/s aggregate bidirectional throughput
- NVIDIA SHARP™ in-network computing technology
- Energy-efficient design with redundant power
- Comprehensive management capabilities
Technical Specifications
Advanced Technology
The SB7800 incorporates NVIDIA's innovative SHARP (Scalable Hierarchical Aggregation and Reduction Protocol) technology, which dramatically accelerates MPI operations by performing in-network computation. This approach reduces data movement across the network by up to 80%, significantly improving application performance while freeing CPU resources for computation rather than communication tasks.
This network switch supports the latest InfiniBand standards and is compatible with Ethernet via RoCE (RDMA over Converged Ethernet), providing flexibility in heterogeneous data center environments.
Deployment Applications
The NVIDIA SB7800 InfiniBand switch is specifically designed for high-performance computing environments including:
- Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning clusters
- High-performance computing and scientific research
- Large-scale data analytics and cloud infrastructure
- Financial modeling and simulation environments
- Media and entertainment rendering farms
This network card solution serves as an optimal top-of-rack switch for small to extremely large cluster deployments.
Performance Advantages
The SB7800 series offers significant advantages over conventional switching solutions:
- Enhanced Efficiency: SHARP technology reduces network traffic and MPI operation time
- Power Optimization: Energy-efficient design with ATIS compliance (as low as 122W)
- High Availability: Redundant, hot-swappable power and cooling components
- Simplified Management: MLNX-OS and UFM platform integration
- Future-Proof Design: Support for evolving computational workloads
- Flexible Deployment: Multiple airflow direction options (P2C or C2P)
This network switch delivers superior price-performance ratio compared to alternative solutions, reducing both capital and operational expenditures.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes this InfiniBand switch different from standard Ethernet switches?
A: The SB7800 offers significantly higher bandwidth (100Gb/s per port), lower latency, and specialized features like NVIDIA SHARP for in-network computation acceleration, which are essential for HPC and AI workloads.
Q: Can this switch be used in mixed Ethernet/InfiniBand environments?
A: Yes, through RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) support, this network switch can bridge InfiniBand and Ethernet environments effectively.
Q: What management options are available for the SB7800?
A: The switch can be managed through MLNX-OS or integrated with NVIDIA's UFM platform for comprehensive data center management, including real-time telemetry and analytics.
Q: What is the power consumption of this network card switch?
A: The switch is designed for energy efficiency with typical power consumption of 122W for a fully populated system, and even lower when not all ports are utilized.
