AOC-CIBF-m1
Compact and Powerful InfiniBand FDR Adapter  
The AOC-CIBF-m1 is the most compact, yet powerful, InfiniBand adapter in the market.  Based on Mellanox® ConnectX-3 with 
Virtual Protocol Interconnect (VPI), it provides the highest performing and most flexible interconnect solution for servers 
used in Enterprise Data Centers and High-Performance Computing.  The AOC-CIBF-m1 simplifies the system development by 
serving both InfiniBand and Ethernet fabrics in one hardware design.  The AOC-CIBF-m1 is designed in a small microLP form 
factor to fit Supermicro Twin server systems.
