NVIDIA InfiniBand Long Haul Systems

InfiniBand Long-Haul Systems

Extend InfiniBand performance to remote infrastructures and the edge.

NVIDIA® MetroX® long-haul systems seamlessly connect remote InfiniBand data centers, storage, or other InfiniBand-based platforms. Extending the reach of InfiniBand over long distances and dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) infrastructures enables native and encrypted InfiniBand connectivity between remote data centers—or between data center and remote storage infrastructures—for high availability and disaster recovery.

Meet MetroX.

For geographically distributed higher education and research institutions, storing compute and storage resources in one central location can be challenging. The MetroX family of long-haul systems extends the availability of InfiniBand’s high data throughput and native remote direct-memory access (RDMA) communications. Users can easily and effectively migrate application jobs from one InfiniBand-connected data center to another or combine the compute power of multiple remote data centers together for higher overall performance and scalability.

Achieve world-class performance.

Accelerated data transfers with In-Network Computing.

NVIDIA Scalable Hierarchical Aggregation and Reduction Protocol (SHARP)™ offloads collective operations from the CPUs to the switch network.
