BlueField System On Chip (SoC)
The BF1600 Controller Card is populated with a BlueField SoC. The BlueField IC is a highly integrated System-on-Chip (SoC) optimized for NVMe storage
appliances, networking appliances, and programmable networking adapters. BlueField integrates a multicore Arm v8 processor subsystem (sixteen cores)
together with a ConnectX®-5 dual-port Virtual Protocol Interconnect (VPI) network controller. The SoC includes two channels of DDR4 DRAM controllers,
and 32 lanes of external PCIe lanes supporting Gen3 and Gen 4, along with an embedded PCIe switch.
Ethernet QSFP56 Interfaces
The network ports of the BlueField BF1600 Controller Card are compliant with the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet standards listed in Ethernet traffic is transmitted
through the cards' QSFP28 connectors.
QSFP28 Port Over-current Protection
The power consumption for each QSFP28 modules is controlled by a 5W current limiting power distribution switch. Every power limiting switch is
controlled by a signal, which is enabled by default. This signal is originated from the thermal shutdown mechanism. When the output load exceeds the
current limit threshold, the power switch limits the current to a safe level.
