About the NVIDIA Quantum-3 InfiniBand - 800Gb/s (MQM9700-NS2FS)
The NVIDIA Quantum-3 InfiniBand MQM9700-NS2FS delivers 64 ports of 800Gb/s NDR connectivity with 102.4 Tb/s total fabric capacity in a compact 1U form factor. This enterprise-class switch sets the standard for high-performance computing, AI infrastructure, and data centre interconnect deployments. NVIDIA's Quantum-3 ASIC enables wire-speed switching with minimal latency, making it the preferred choice for AI infrastructure teams, network engineers, and high-performance computing centres deploying next-generation workloads.
Built on NVIDIA NDR (Next Data Rate) technology, the MQM9700-NS2FS supports flexible link speeds including native 800Gb/s, NDR200 dual-lane configurations, and backward compatibility with HDR 200Gb/s via adapters. The switch features redundant hot-swappable power supplies, front-to-back or back-to-front airflow options, and integrates NVIDIA SHARP v3 for in-network computing—enabling offloaded MPI collective operations and AI gradient reduction directly on the fabric. Adaptive routing, unified management via NVIDIA UFM (Unified Fabric Manager), and full compliance with CE, FCC, and RoHS standards ensure seamless integration into regulated enterprise environments. Operating across 0°C to 40°C, the NS2FS variant delivers standard airflow configuration optimised for most data centre deployments. OSFP transceiver slots provide maximum flexibility for multi-generational link speeds and vendor interoperability.
Typical Enterprise Deployments
- Large-scale AI training clusters requiring sub-microsecond latency and collective offload
- HPC centres consolidating compute, storage, and GPU-accelerated workloads on unified fabric
- Cloud service providers building next-generation bare-metal infrastructure
- Financial services firms running real-time risk analytics across distributed memory pools
- Research institutions bridging supercomputing centres with predictable, deterministic performance
