Evidence

Each NVLink Switch Chip connects via flyover cables to the connector (144 DPs used x 200 Gbit/s bi-di channel = 28.8Tbit/s) connectors at the edge of the switch blade, and these connectors plug into the midplane board

Context After

Rubin Ultra NVL288

Though not officially discussed by Nvidia at GTC 2026, an NVL288 concept has been explored within the supply chain. This would entail two NVL144 Kyber racks placed adjacent to each other, with a rack-to-rack copper backplane used to connect the two racks. One possibility is that all 288 GPUs are connected all to all, but this would require higher radix switches than the current NVLink 7 switches which only offer a maximum radix of 144 ports of 200G.

② Atomic Claim

每顆 NVLink Switch chip 透過 flyover cables 連到 switch blade 邊緣 connectors;使用 144 DPs × 200Gbit/s bi-di channel,可提供 28.8Tbit/s,這些 connectors 再插入 midplane board。
