- Specifications
The 648311-B21 is the HPE 4X FDR InfiniBand managed switch for BladeSystem c-Class. It is a double wide switch blade for the HPE BladeSystem c7000 Platinum enclosure, with a management module that can run the InfiniBand subnet manager.
The switch has 16 downlink ports to connect up to 16 server blades through the midplane, and 18 QSFP uplink ports for inter-switch links or for connections to external servers. All ports support 56Gbps (FDR) bandwidth, and the uplink ports take copper and fiber optic cables.
