KALEA-INFORMATIQUE PCIe 4.0 Switch Controller Card with 10 SFF-8654 8i Ports for Replicating 5 Gen4 x16 GPUs and Industrial Applications

10-port NVMe PCIe 4.0 x16 switch card based on the Broadcom PEX88096 controller. Equipped with its own PCIe switch function, it supports multiple PCIe lane allocation modes, including 20×(x4), 10×(x8), or 5×(x16). IMPORTANT: The configuration of 20 ports (x4) OR 10 ports (x8) OR 5 ports (x16) is not adaptive; it is set at the time of card production. The model offered here is configured with 5 ports (x16), allowing, for example, the connection of 5 graphics cards. With a transfer rate of up to 256 Gb/s, this card can directly connect up to 20 U.2 NVMe SSDs. It is specifically designed for high-end applications such as SSD performance testing and GPU expansion testing, while offering enterprise-grade NVMe connectivity for a wide range of standard x86 servers and workstations. Designed as a high-capacity expansion solution for flash servers, this card leverages ultra-high-bandwidth, low-latency PCIe 4.0 connectivity, ensuring accurate, real-time test data and helping to accelerate product development and validation cycles.
