Context Before
Something interesting about the system is the important role the FPGAs play. Nvidia refers to the FPGAs as “Fabric Expansion Logic” which serves multiple purposes. First, they act as a NIC which converts the LPU’s C2C protocol into Ethernet to connect to the Spectrum-X based ethernet scale-out fabric. It is this scale-out fabric through which the LPUs connect to GPUs in the decode system.
Second, the LPUs also traverse through the FPGAs to reach the host CPU, with the FPGAs converting C2C to PCIe to the CPU.

Context After
On the front panel there are 8 x OSFP cages for cross-rack C2C, while there will be 2 cages (likely QSFP-DD) that goes to the Spectrum-switches that is used to connect the LPUs and the GPUs for the disaggregated decode system. We will share more about this when we describe the network.
