Evidence

For Rubin Ultra NVL144 Kyber, there will be no CPO used for scale up as we have told clients multiple times , despite rumors from other analysts suggesting scale-up CPO introduction for Kyber. However, optics for NVLink are coming and will be progressively phased in. Scale-up CPO will first be used for the Rubin Ultra NVL 576 system to connect between 8 Oberon form factor racks, forming a two-layer all-to-all network. A copper backplane will still be used for scale-up networking within the racks however. This is still for low volume / testing purposes.

Context After

Moving back to the Kyber Rack, each Rubin Ultra logical GPU offers 14.4Tbit/s uni-di of scale-up bandwidth, using an 80DP connector (72 DPs used x 200Gbit/s bi-di channel = 14.4Tbit/s) per GPU for connectivity to the midplane board. Connecting all 144 GPUs in an all-to-all network will require 72 NVLink 7.0 Switch Chips running at 28.8Tbit/s uni-di of aggregate bandwidth each.

② Atomic Claim

Rubin Ultra NVL144 Kyber 的 scale-up 不會使用 CPO;SemiAnalysis 曾多次向客戶說明這點,儘管其他分析師曾傳出 Kyber 將導入 scale-up CPO 的消息。
