Product Description
The Lenovo 7ZT7A00501, based on the Mellanox ConnectX-3 architecture, is a high-performance network adapter designed for the most demanding computing environments, including supercomputing, high-performance storage, and large-scale data centers. This adapter supports FDR (Fourteen Data Rate) InfiniBand speeds, offering up to 56Gb/s per port, and is also capable of Ethernet connectivity, providing flexibility for various network infrastructures. A key feature of this adapter is its VPI (Virtual Protocol Interconnect) capability, which allows it to operate seamlessly as either an InfiniBand or Ethernet adapter. This versatility simplifies network management and reduces hardware costs by enabling a single adapter to support multiple network protocols. The dual QSFP (Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable) ports provide high-density connectivity options for high-speed optical or copper transceivers. With a PCIe 3.0 x16 interface, the 7ZT7A00501 ensures maximum bandwidth to the host system, minimizing bottlenecks and maximizing performance for latency-sensitive and bandwidth-intensive applications. Its advanced features, such as RDMA (Remote Direct Memory Access) over InfiniBand and RoCE (RDMA over Converged Ethernet), further enhance application performance by offloading network processing from the CPU.
