Dell Networking H-Series Edge Switches based on Intel® Omni-Path
architecture
End-to-end throughput and reliability
Based on the Intel® Omni-Path architecture, Dell Networking
H-Series edge switches are capable of creating structures that meet
demanding application requirements with high message rate
throughput, deterministic latency, and enhanced end-to-end
reliability.
To cope with the ever-increasing processing power and core count
requirements, the Intel® Omni-Path architecture supports high
bandwidth and high messaging rate throughput at each node through
its architecture.
The 48-port ASIC design built for specific applications increases
the scalability and density of the fabric while reducing latency,
cost and power consumption while enabling 2-layer configuration for
up to 27,648 nodes.
Networking H-Series Edge Switches - deterministic latency and
enhanced reliability
Deterministic delay and enhanced reliability
The Intel® Omni-Path architecture is designed to help minimize the
negative performance impact of large transmission units (MTUs) on
small-scale messages while bypassing low-priority large packets and
handling higher-priority small packets. This distribution method
helps keep interprocess communication (IPC) messages at a low level
of latency while the large messages are simultaneously transmitted
in the fabric, and the delays are more predictable.
The error detection and correction enhancements include a
zero-detection load, and if correction is required, the system
retransmits the packet from the last link location instead of the
sending node.
Networking H-Series Edge Switches - Key Benefits
Main advantages:
The Intel® OPA 48-Port Switch ASIC enhances fabric scalability,
increases density, and reduces latency, cost, and power
consumption.
These switches significantly reduce structural procurement costs
while reducing space and energy requirements
Software management tools simplify the installation and management
of small to very large complex structures
