Context Before

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.

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

Evidence

bi-directional SerDes, the number of cables required does not change from the GB300 backplane generation to the Vera Rubin NVL72 backplane generation

② Atomic Claim

由於採 bi-directional SerDes,從 GB300 backplane 世代到 Vera Rubin NVL72 backplane 世代,所需 cable 數量並未增加。
