Switch-IB 2 Based EDR InfiniBand Mellanox Network Switch MSB7800-ES2F

NVIDIA Switch-IB 2 MSB7800-ES2F 100Gb/s InfiniBand Switch

The NVIDIA SB7800 is a high-performance, 100Gb/s InfiniBand switch designed for modern data centers requiring extreme bandwidth, low latency, and scalable interconnect solutions. Ideal for HPC, AI, and large-scale cloud environments, this switch delivers exceptional performance and efficiency in a compact 1U form factor.

MSB7800-ES2F Key Features

• 36 non-blocking 100Gb/s InfiniBand ports with a total throughput of 7.2 Tb/s
• NVIDIA SHARP™ technology for accelerated in-network computing
• Ultra-low latency and high message rate
• Redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and cooling
• Comprehensive management via MLNX-OS and UFM platforms

MSB7800-ES2F Technology

The SB7800 leverages NVIDIA's Switch-IB 2 ASIC and supports advanced InfiniBand features including RoCE and adaptive routing. It incorporates NVIDIA SHARP (Scalable Hierarchical Aggregation and Reduction Protocol) to offload collective operations from CPUs to the switch, significantly reducing MPI operation times and network traffic.

MSB7800-ES2F Working Principle

The switch operates by routing InfiniBand traffic between nodes with minimal latency. SHARP technology allows aggregation and reduction operations to be performed within the switch fabric, reducing the number of data transmissions and freeing CPU resources for computation.
