  • Will the optical module be affected by the copper backplane connection

    Will the optical module be affected by the copper backplane connection

    The external interconnection of the entire system does not adopt OSFP optical module interfaces but directly connects through a rear copper backplane, as shown below: The assertions made by financial analysts regarding the transition from optical to copper are somewhat one-sided. This switch provides 144 ports with speeds of 800GB/s each, facilitated by 72 1. 6T OSFP-XD optical modules (connected via NVIDIA's UFM unified fabric manager). Leveraging the high performance of the new Quantum-X800 Q3400 switch, its two-layer fat-tree network topology can connect up to 10,368. However, on NVLink Switches or IB/Ethernet switches and network cards, Mellanox's perspective calculates it in terms of network bandwidth, usually in bits per second (bit/s), based on the transmitted data bits. Here, we'll explain in detail the calculation method of NVLink. Starting from NVLink. NVIDIA B200 copper connection is "advanced", are optical modules in danger?
