Mellanox provides the worlds first smart switch, enabling in-network computing through the Co-Design Scalable Hierarchical Aggregation and Reduction Protocol (SHARP) technology. SB7890 has the highest fabric performance available in the market with up to 7.2Tb/s of non-blocking bandwidth with 90ns port-to-port latency.

Faster servers based on PCIe 3.0, combined with high-performance storage and applications that use increasingly complex computations, are causing data bandwidth requirements to spiral upward. As servers are deployed with next generation processors, High-Performance Computing (HPC) environments and Enterprise Data Centers (EDC) will need every last bit of bandwidth delivered with Mellanoxs next generation of Extended Data Rate (EDR) InfiniBand high-speed smart switches.

Built with Mellanoxs latest Switch-IB 2 InfiniBand switch device, EDR uses efficient 64/66 encoding while increasing the per lane signaling rate to 25Gb/s. SB7890 provides up to thirty-six 100Gb/s full bi-directional bandwidth per port. These stand-alone switches are an ideal choice for top-of-rack leaf connectivity or for building small to extremely large sized clusters.
