IBM Power7 8202-E4B (#5283) - PCIe2 LP 2-Port 4X IB QDR Adapter 40Gb

The PCIe Gen-2 low profile 2-port 4X Infiniband QDR adapter provides high speed connectivity with other servers or IB switches. Each port maximum of 40Gb assumes no other system or switch bottlenecks are present.

Note: A PCIe Gen2 slot does not have the bandwidth to support two 40Gb ports. The benefit of the second 40Gb port is additional attachment redundancy, not performance.

Also note: AIX supports multiple types of adapter usages across different applications and adapter performance should generally meet or exceed client needs. But when using TCP/IP, some AIX clients may observe less than full unidirectional link bandwidth and less than linear scaling for duplex bandwidth with the #5283.

Attributes provided: PCIe2 LP 2-Port 4X IB QDR Adapter 40Gb

Attributes required: PCIe Gen2 low profile slot
