The IB6132D 2-port FDR InfiniBand adapter is designed for use in Lenovo Flex System x222 compute nodes. This 2-port adapter is based on the Mellanox ConnectX-3 technology, and it can support two compute nodes simultaneously, with both nodes operating at InfiniBand FDR speeds (56 Gbps or 14 Gbps per lane).
The IB6132D adapter is designed to deliver low-latency and high-bandwidth operation for performance-driven clustering applications that are running on servers in the enterprise data center, high-performance computing (HPC), and embedded environments. This adapter also provides enhanced performance in virtualized server environments and can help simplify network deployment by consolidating clustering, communications, and management I/O. When using this adapter, clustered databases, parallelized applications, transactional services, and high-performance embedded I/O applications potentially can achieve significant performance improvements that can reduce the completion time and lower the cost per operation.
