That is not really the case in practice; You can buy a Mellanox 144-Port Modular InfiniBand DDR Switch (60-Ports enabled) for around 22k EUR or so the 24 port switches are around 2k EUR As most people dont need anything like the full 16 Gbit/s bandwidth you can connect up your 50 ports for about 13/14k EUR ta Andy _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
