By managing traffic at the FLIT level, Intel reg Omni-Path Architecture /p

Data is segmented into 65-bit Flow Control Digits FLITs , which are assembled into much larger Link Transfer Packets LTPs for efficient wire transfer

Designed specifically for HPC, Intel reg Omni-Path Host Fabric Interface HFI adapters, an element of the Intel reg Scalable System Framework, use an advanced on-load design that automatically scales fabric performance with rising server core counts, making these adapters ideal for today 39 39 s increasingly demanding workloads.Multiple Performance LevelsTwo Intel reg Omni-Path Host Fabric Adapter models are available to help fabric designers maximize performance versus cost for diverse requirements

The PCIe x8 model supports the same 100 Gbps link rate, while the narrower PCIe connection limits actual data rates to 56 Gbps.Advanced Quality of Service QoS Intel Omni-Path Host Fabric Interface adapters provide the foundation for powerful and efficient traffic control

ThePCIe x16 model supports the full 100 Gbs line rate
