InfiniBand Blade Switch I/O Module for PowerEdge M-Series Rev 1.0

Mellanox Technologies

1Overview

The SwitchX M4001F 56 Gb/s, and the M4001Q 40 Gb/s InfiniBand blade switch I/O module for

the PowerEdge M-Series chassis provides a high bandwidth, low latency fabric for Enterprise Data

Centers (EDC), High-Performance Computing (HPC), and Embedded environments. Based on the

generation InfiniBand switch device (1

Generation SwitchX). This I/O module (IOM) deliv-

ers up to 56Gb/s at FDR speed and 40 Gb/s at QDR speed full bisectional bandwidth per port.

When used in conjunction with ConnectX®-3 InfiniBand dual port Mezzanine I/O cards, clustered

data bases, parallelized applications and transactional services applications these switches will

achieve significant performance improvements resulting in reduced completion time and lower

cost per operation.

The I/O module comes pre-installed with all necessary firmware, and configured for standard

operation within an InfiniBand fabric, and only requires an InfiniBand compliant Subnet Manager

running from one of the hosts. All that is required for normal operation is to follow the usual pre

cautions for installation and connection from the switch to the HCAs or other switches. Once con-

nected, the Subnet Management software automatically configures the switch and begins utilizing

the switch.

It is recommended that Mellanox OpenFabrics software package be installed on all nodes con-

nected to the M4001[F, Q]. The software package provides a subnet manager and network man-

agement tools as well as connectivity software for servers and storage, and is available on the

Mellanox web site. See Chapter 3 for more information.

Basic installation, hot-swapping components and hardware maintenance is covered in “Installation

and Basic Operation” on page 11.

The M4001F and M4001Q switches have a Hot Swap controller and a PSOC Management IC.

3. Pull the I/O Module Blank out of the chassis using the locking arm.

2.2.3 Installing the Mellanox M4001[F, Q] Switch Into the Dell Chassis

Refer to the Dell PowerEdge M1000e Hardware Owners Manual for more information.

1. Follow the instructions in Section 2.2.1 or Section 2.2.2 to remove an old switch or an I/O

Module Blank.

2. On the new switch, push the red latch release button.

3. Pull the lever forward until the lever is perpendicular to the front panel.

4. Push the switch into the slot until the latching mechanism is against the bar.

5. Push the lever on the latching mechanism up, making sure that the latching mechanism

catches the locking bar. The lever should now be parallel to the front panel.

6. Check the indicator lights to make sure the switch has power.

2.3 Power Connections and Initial Power On

The I/O module will automatically power up when AC power is applied. There is no power switch.

Immediately upon closing the latching mechanism check to make sure that the green switch LED

is lit.

2.4 InfiniBand Cable Installation

All cables can be inserted or removed with the unit powered on. To insert a cable, press the con-

nector into the port receptacle until the connector is firmly seated. The green LED indicator

accompanying each port will light when the physical connection is established (that is, when the

unit is powered on and a cable is plugged into the port with the other end of the connector plugged

into a functioning port). After plugging in a cable, lock the connector using the latching mecha

nism particular to the cable vendor. The yellow LED will light if the subnet manager is running

(non blinking indicating that no data is being transferred yet). When a logical connection is made

the yellow LED will blink signifying data is being transferred.

Make sure the rack is stable on a solid floor and that the rack is filled from the bottom

up. This will keep the center of gravity as low as possible reducing risk of tipping.

The rack mounting is designed to fit the PowerEdge Chassis. Take precautions to guar-

antee proper ventilation for air intake at the front of the chassis and exhaust at the rear

in order to maintain good airflow at ambient temperature. Cable routing in particular

should not impede the air exhaust from the chassis.

InfiniBand Blade Switch I/O Module for PowerEdge M-Series Rev 1.0

Mellanox Technologies

To remove, disengage the locks and slowly pull the connector away from the port receptacle. Both

LED indicators will turn off when the cable is unseated.

Care should be taken not to impede the air exhaust flow through the chassis.

Cable lengths should be used which allow for routing horizontally around to the side of

the chassis before bending upward or downward in the rack.
