Description
The NVIDIA Quantum-2 QM9700 is one of the most advanced InfiniBand switches on the market, designed to meet the needs of AI supercomputers, HPC clusters, and enterprise data centers. It combines unmatched bandwidth, ultra-low latency, and smart networking features to accelerate the most demanding workloads, from training large AI models to running complex scientific simulations.
Unlike traditional switches that only forward data, the QM9700 comes with in-network computing (SHARPv3), adaptive routing, congestion control, and even self-healing capabilities. This means your network not only delivers raw speed but also optimizes itself for efficiency, stability, and performance at scale.
