Brand: InfiniBand Trade Association (IBTA) - Implemented by vendors like NVIDIA · SKU: InfiniBand-Standard · MPN: N/A · Category: Components
InfiniBand is an open standard, high-speed, low-latency interconnect technology explicitly designed for use in high-performance computing (HPC) and data centers. The InfiniBand Architecture (IBA) is an industry standard specification widely used to interconnect storage devices, servers, and embedded systems, allowing efficient communications between them. It has become the go-to network interconnection technology for high-performance GPU servers due to the rise of AI. Unlike Ethernet, InfiniBand uses a two-layer architecture that separates the physical and data link layers from the network layer, enabling applications to exchange data without putting pressure on the operating system and providing features like virtualization, Quality of Service (QoS), and Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA). It leverages a switched, point-to-point channel fabric architecture.
| Latency | Ultra-low (measured delays of 600ns end-to-end reported) |
|---|---|
| Management | Subnet Manager (SM) |
| Key Feature | Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) |
| Signaling Rates | SDR, DDR, QDR, FDR, EDR, HDR (200G), NDR (400G) |
| Architecture Type | Switched Fabric |
| Maximum Bandwidth (Current) | Up to 800Gb/s (e.g., NVIDIA Quantum-X800) |

InfiniBand is a superior interconnect technology for HPC and AI workloads, offering significantly higher bandwidth and lower latency than traditional Ethernet. Its key advantage is native support for RDMA, which allows direct memory manipulation between systems without CPU overhead. It supports fabric consolidation, QoS, virtualization, and is built on an open standard managed by the IBTA.
