InfiniBand®, a registered trademark of system I/O Inc., is a bus architecture that is grounded in channel-based I/O, a model used with mainframe computers. Attaching host channel adapters and target channel adapters through InfiniBand switches creates InfiniBand channels. Host channel adapters are I/O engines located within a server. Target channel adapters enable remote storage and network connectivity within the InfiniBand interconnect infrastructure. This infrastructure, which is called a fabric, is based on the way that input and output connections are constructed between a host and targets. All InfiniBand connections are created with InfiniBand links that use both copper wire and fiber optics for transmission. This design provides a new way of connecting servers together in a data center. It also enables the implementation of new server strategies. Products & Services
Network cards and network controllers are expansion boards inserted into computers that allow them to connect to a network.
Cable assemblies are collections of wires or cables banded into a single unit with connectors on at least one end.
Network cable assemblies are used in the transmission of data across networks. Choices include Fibre Channel, FireWire or IEEE 1394, GPIB, serial, parallel, patch, SCSI, Ethernet and USB.
Industrial network cables are used in industrial applications such as automation, control and data acquisition.
AdvancedMC products are mezzanine cards (MC) that use a bus specification from the PCI Manufacturers Group (PICMG) for the telecom industry. AdvancedMC products offer advanced telecom features and hot-swap capabilities.
