Product Description
The IBM 46M2205 is a high-performance Host Channel Adapter (HCA) designed to provide a 40Gb/s InfiniBand connection for IBM servers. Featuring a single 4X QDR InfiniBand port, this card is engineered to meet the stringent bandwidth and latency requirements of demanding applications such as high-performance computing (HPC) clusters, large-scale storage solutions, and data-intensive analytics. The card utilizes a PCI-Express x8 interface, ensuring a high-bandwidth connection to the server's motherboard, which is crucial for maximizing the throughput of the 40Gb/s InfiniBand link. The QDR (Quad Data Rate) technology enables the high data transfer speeds, making it suitable for environments where rapid data movement is essential. This InfiniBand adapter is a key component for building high-speed interconnects in clusters and storage networks. Its robust design and high throughput capabilities contribute to improved application performance and reduced communication overhead, making it a valuable addition to IBM server infrastructure requiring advanced networking capabilities.
