IBM 10N9529 – 12X Channel Dual-Port SDR HCA (GX+)

Detailed Description:

The IBM 10N9529 12X Channel Dual-Port SDR HCA (Host Channel Adapter) represents a critical component in high-performance computing (HPC) networks, offering superior connectivity options for IBM servers. This adapter uses the GX+ interface to enhance data throughput between nodes in a clustered environment, thereby supporting the demands of computationally intensive applications. The ’12X’ refers to the twelve-fold increase in bandwidth over traditional single data rate (SDR) InfiniBand connections, providing a significant boost in performance for data transfer and communication processes. With dual ports, the adapter ensures redundancy and improved data availability, essential for maintaining operations in mission-critical HPC applications. The IBM 10N9529 is particularly suited for environments requiring high bandwidth and low latency, such as scientific research, financial modeling, and data analytics. Its deployment can lead to substantial increases in computational efficiency and throughput, enabling organizations to achieve faster results and more effective data processing capabilities.
