Intel 100 Gbps QSFP28 Adapter

This Intel 100 Series Host Fabric Interface Adapter delivers 100 Gbps connectivity through a single QSFP28 port. It installs in a PCIe x16 slot using a low-profile bracket and measures 6.60" x 2.713". The card weighs 0.53 lb and includes a green link status indicator.

Upgrade from lower bandwidth fabrics

The adapter replaces slower interconnects in high-performance compute clusters where message rate and latency matter. End-to-end fabric optimisation and built-in congestion control with QoS make the jump worthwhile when MPI workloads saturate existing links.

Suits HPC cluster builders

Buyers assembling Intel Omni-Path fabrics for MPI-heavy workloads will benefit from the high message rates. Those needing multi-port density, a different form factor, or compatibility with non-Omni-Path networks should look at other options.

Questions about this item

Will the 6.60 x 2.713 inch low-profile card fit my half-height chassis?

The board measures 6.60 inches by 2.713 inches and uses a low-profile bracket, so it fits half-height slots that accept that length.

Does the PCIe x16 connector require a specific slot generation or bifurcation?

Insert the x16 edge connector into any PCIe x16 slot; the adapter negotiates link width automatically and does not need bifurcation.

When should I replace the QSFP28 transceiver or cable?

Replace the QSFP28 module or cable if the green link-status LED stays off after reseating, or if cyclic redundancy errors climb during sustained 100 Gbps traffic.
