G4660

As a dual root complex server, the G4660 deploys a pair of Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors with an even split of GPU cards between the two. The motherboard deploys a set of four PLX PEX8747 PCIe switch chips to provide the connectivity for the 8 GPU card slots. There is additional space next to the 8 GPU cards in the server for a 9th PCIe x16 slot that is ideal for high speed networking or NVMe retimer deployment. This allows a single-wide x16 card to be installed next to a full complement of 8 double-wide GPU cards, and is ideal for NVME deployment or high speed networking like 100 Gigabit Ethernet. The mechanical design of the G4660 chassis allows expansion cards to fully utilize the 4U enclosure, allowing the G4660 to deploy the widest range of accelerator cards in the industry without requiring a specialized domed lid for the power connectors of active GPU cards.
