CloseThis item has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available.
The 16 Channel GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 (4x Compute Modules, 2x PCIe Slots) from Cubix is a Series II, 5U, external PCIe expansion chassis that can support 1-4 server connections with up to 16 graphics processing units. This enables massive parallel calculations independent from the server, thus enhancing system performance and flexibility. The GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 allows you to add up to 16.48 teraflops of computational power to your data center.
The GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 is specifically certified for use with the Cubix HostEngine but you can also connect to virtually any host computer with the Cubix host interface controller (HIC). Additionally, as the GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 separates parallel processing from the server itself, you have more freedom to allocate server assets to other tasks.- Crunch Numbers
- You can turn your servers into computing powerhouses that can satisfy your quest for customizable speed by populating the GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 with 16 single-wide GPU cards. Up to 16.48 Teraflops: 8 nVIDIA Tesla C2050 or C2070 compute modules means up to 16,480 gigaflops of parallel calculating power at your disposal.Best for the Least: The GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 is a high-quality PCIe enclosure with x16 slots in one enclosure that is available with four nVIDIA Quadro 5000 GPUs for the lowest price.Multiple Configurations: You can mix and match PCIe devices to set the right ratio for maximum application performance.Flexibility: You can connect the GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 to two or four host computers. You can also install GPUs with top-edge auxiliary (aux) power connectors.
- Install Almost any Adapter
- The GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 is certified for use with the Cubix GPU-Blade server. It also supports almost any PCIe graphics controller or adapter.nVIDIA Tesla C2050 / C2070 / C2075.nVIDIA Quadro 4000 / 5000 6000.nVIDIA Quadro FX 3800 / 4800 / 5800. nVIDIA GeForce GTX 480 / 580.
- Auxiliary Power Connectors
- The GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 offers a cost effective solution with more value and flexibility for supporting a variety of GPUs or other controllers or adapters. Many GPUs require top-connected auxiliary power connectors, which the GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 handles with ease.
- Easy to Own and Operate
- The GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 PCIe Expansion Chassis is designed to concentrate tremendous computer power in a simple, scalable format that brings improved space, weight and cost-efficiency to your data center.
- GPU-Manager for Microsoft Windows
- The Cubix GPU-Manager is an application that provides management of graphics processing unit (GPU) clusters in the GPU-Xpander Rack Mount 8 enclosure. The primary aim of GPU-Manager is asset management, health monitoring and technical support data of GPUs. The GPU-Manager runs under Microsoft Windows but does not support PCIe devices that are not GPUs. If you run Microsoft Windows on computers connected to the GPU-Xpander, you can download and install GPU-Manager by creating an account on the Cubix website.GPU-Manager collects data from distributed GPU clusters into a central management console that lists the following:All attached GPU-Xpander enclosures.The GPUs within each GPU-Xpander enclosure.GPU capabilities such as number of GPU cores, amount of RAM and many moreOperating system and software driver version numbers. GPU-Manager continuously monitors GPU clusters and provides the following:Link status, number of lanes and link speed for each enclosure. Temperature, fan speed and GPU load characteristics for each GPU.
