  9. Advances to the InfiniBand Ecosystem … Coming Soon!

  10. Innovation at the host …. • Increased number of “IB Down” motherboards and blades • DDR cards for HTX bus • Increased message rates and decreased latency for DDR • Cards that can be configured to InfiniBand or 10GigE • Quad Data Rate (QDR) – 40 • New Cabling solutions including: • Fiber that is cost competitive with copper • Active copper • QSFP connectors (vs. CX4 today) QLogic Confidential

  13. Hardware Innovation Staying steps ahead of other Interconnects • QDR switch chips • Enabling QDR to the host (40 GB/s) • Enabling up to 120 Gb/s (12X QDR) switch-to-switch • Higher port count switches • Switch port count maximum is realistically limited to n2 / 2 • Example … 32 port chip would be 32*16 = 512 ports • Mainstream InfiniBand Routers • Mainstream Long Haul InfiniBand • Refresh of Ethernet and Fibre Channel gateways QLogic Confidential

  14. Software Innovation – Enterprise Ready! • New Enterprise Features and Functions • QOS • Multi-path • Adaptive Routing • Partitioning • Server Boot Options • Enhanced Security • Congestion Avoidance • And then … even more Robust Management and Diagnostics? • GUI and Log based event notification • Fabric Health Monitoring • Automated Problem Resolution • Congestion Management QLogic Confidential
