Compact and Powerful InfiniBand QDR Adapter



The AOC-CIBQ-m1 is the most compact, yet powerful, InfiniBand adapter in the market. Based on Mellanox® ConnectX-3 with Virtual Protocol Interconnect (VPI), it provides the highest performing and most flexible interconnect solution for servers used in Enterprise Data Centers and High-Performance Computing. The AOC-CIBQ-m1 simplifies the system development by serving both InfiniBand and Ethernet fabrics in one hardware design. The AOC-CIBQ-m1 is designed in a small microLP form factor to fit Supermicro Twin and MicroCloud server systems.


This product is only available through Supermicro.
