NVIDIA InfiniBand NDR (Quantum-2)
400 Gb/s InfiniBand. The default back-end fabric for large commercial GPU clusters.
Why this part
The default fabric for large GPU clusters, and the reason Meta's two published clusters are so useful: they built one on NDR InfiniBand and one on RoCE Ethernet at the same scale, with the same GPUs, and reported that both trained the same model. That is the clearest public evidence anyone has offered that InfiniBand's position is contestable, which is why an operator large enough to run the experiment did it.
