Voltaire High Performance InfiniBand Pass-Thru Module and Host Channel Adapter Expansion Card
The Voltaire High Performance InfiniBand Pass-Thru Module and Host Channel Adapter Expansion Card for IBM's BladeCenter-H provide the ideal solution for high bandwidth, low latency connectivity for IBM's blade server solutions. Combined with the external InfiniBand, Ethernet and Fibre Channel switching capabilities available in Voltaire's director-class multi-service switches, users can fully exploit the benefits of IBM's blade server architecture.
- Delivers highest chassis throughput and performance in the industry. Especially important in High Performance Computing environments, this modules enables BladeCenter server systems to form high-performance clusters and grids that deliver the performance required to realize the full potential of next-generations applications and systems.
- Combined with DDR HCAs, this module provides 14 4x DDR ports of connectivity to blades and 14 4x DDR external ports from the BladeCenter H chassis
- Supports Message Passing Interface (MPI), IP over InfiniBand® (IPoIB), and Sockets Direct Protocol (SDP), which use InfiniBand Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) to support the most demanding high-performance computing applications and high-performance database clusters

Mellanox ConnectX IB - Dual-Port InfiniBand Adapter Cards with PCI Express
Mellanox ConnectX IB InfiniBand Host Channel Adapter (HCA) cards deliver low-latency and high-bandwidth for performance-driven server and storage clustering applications in Enterprise Data Centers, High-Performance Computing, and Embedded environments. Clustered data bases, parallelized applications, transactional services and high-performance embedded I/O applications will achieve significant performance improvements resulting in reduced completion time and lower cost per operation. ConnectX IB simplifies network deployment by consolidating clustering, communications, storage, and management I/O and providing enhanced performance in virtualized server environments.
Clustered applications running on multi-socket servers using multi-core processors will benefits from the reliable transport connections and advanced multicast support offered by ConnectX IB. Servers supporting PCI Express 2.0 with 5GT/s will be able to utilize the full potential of 20Gb/s InfiniBand, balancing the I/O requirements of these high-end servers. End-to-end Quality of Server (QoS) enables partitioning and guaranteed service levels while hardware-based congestion control prevents hot spots from degrading the effective throughput. ConnectX is capable of scaling to tens-of-thousands of server and storage nodes.
Available for Purchase from IBM for BladeCenter H.

Chelsio S320EM-BCH 10GbE Storage Accelerator
CHELSIO'S S320EM-BCH 10GbE Storage Accelerator is a dual-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet mezzanine card with PCI Express host bus interface for IBM BladeCenter H, optimized for storage applications. The third-generation technology from Chelsio provides the highest 10GbE performance available and dramatically lowers host-system CPU communications overhead.
With on-board hardware that offloads TCP/IP, iSCSI, and iWARP RDMA processing from its host system, the S320EM-BCH frees up host CPU cycles for useful applications. The system achieves increased bandwidth, lower latency, and lower power.
This combination makes it practical to converge other networks that traditionally used niche technologies onto 10GbE. High bandwidth and extremely low latency make 10GbE with protocol offload the best technology for high-performance cluster computing (HPCC) fabrics.
