409778-001 - HP Infiniband PCI-Express Dual Port 4X DDR (HPC/DB) Host Channel Adapter

Description

The HP 409778-001 is a dual-port InfiniBand Host Channel Adapter (HCA) designed for high-performance server connectivity. It features two ports utilizing the SFF-8470 connector, which is commonly associated with InfiniBand fabric connections. This adapter leverages the InfiniBand architecture to provide extremely low latency and high bandwidth, making it ideal for demanding applications such as high-performance computing (HPC), large-scale server clusters, and data-intensive workloads. Equipped with a PCI Express x4 interface, this HCA ensures that the adapter has sufficient bandwidth to support its dual InfiniBand connections. The PCIe x4 slot provides a fast communication pathway between the server's CPU and the InfiniBand fabric, which is critical for minimizing data transfer times and improving overall system responsiveness in high-performance environments. This adapter is a key component for organizations that require cutting-edge network performance. Its dual-port capability allows for network redundancy or increased throughput, enhancing the reliability and efficiency of the server's connection to the InfiniBand network. The low-latency nature of InfiniBand is crucial for applications where even small delays can impact performance, such as in scientific simulations or financial modeling.
