Context Before

Evidence

As previously explained, high speed signals require better PCB materials, especially for NVLink 6 which has much lower tolerance for insertion loss given the use of bidirectional signaling. The number of lanes between the PaladinHD2 connectors and the NVLink Switch also creates complexity for PCB design. Hence, the NVLink 6 Switch board PCB is upgraded to 32 layers with M8+ graded CCL - minimally LDK2 glass fiber cloth or potentially Quartz fiber cloth.

Context After

We have more details on the switch tray and various components in the VR NVL72 Component BoM and Power Budget Model ↗.

Zooming out, backplane copper cables are used to connect NVLink Switch trays to the GPU trays for the VR NVL72 system. Although the bandwidth doubles, with bi-directional SerDes, the number of cables required does not change from the GB300 backplane generation to the Vera Rubin NVL72 backplane generation. The number of connectors and the number of DPs per connector also does not change from Grace Blackwell NVL72 to VR NVL72.
