QLE7280-CK - QLogic Single -Port PCI-Express X16 INFINIBAND DDR TO HOST Channel Adapter

Description

The QLogic QLE7280-CK is a high-performance network adapter engineered for demanding data-intensive environments, particularly within High-Performance Computing (HPC) clusters. It utilizes the InfiniBand architecture, renowned for its low latency and high bandwidth capabilities, which are crucial for parallel processing and large-scale data analysis. The adapter features a single InfiniBand port, allowing for direct, high-speed connections between servers, storage systems, and other compute nodes. Integrated with a PCI-Express x16 interface, the QLE7280-CK leverages the substantial bandwidth provided by the PCIe bus to ensure that the network adapter is not a bottleneck for data flow. The InfiniBand DDR (Double Data Rate) technology signifies its support for advanced signaling techniques that double the data throughput compared to earlier InfiniBand generations. This makes it exceptionally well-suited for applications that require rapid data exchange, such as scientific simulations, financial modeling, and large-scale data warehousing. This adapter is typically deployed in environments where minimizing communication overhead and maximizing inter-node bandwidth are paramount. Its robust design and QLogic's reputation for reliability make it a solid choice for building or expanding high-performance networks. Proper system configuration, including compatible InfiniBand switches and host channel adapters (HCAs), is essential for realizing the full potential of this device.
