VR2R-0538

① SA Source

Context Before

Cramming in approximately five thousand copper cables on the backplane at the Blackwell generation has introduced non-trivial reliability failure modes at scale. To double scale-up bandwidth while

Evidence

staying on regular 200G SerDes would require the backplane to double to ten thousand copper cables: only further increasing the manufacturing complexity and likelihood of failure of the system.

Context After

NVIDIA could also opt to deploy wider racks instead as is the case of AMD’s Helios rack, but this could affect the signal integrity on the PCB as electrical signals will have to traverse a longer path.

② Atomic Claim

……若維持一般 200G SerDes,backplane 就需要翻倍到 10,000 條 copper cables,進一步提高 manufacturing complexity 與 system failure likelihood。
