Specifically, Cisco debuted several new servers equipped with Nvidia GPUs and AMD CPUs, targeted for AI workloads, a new high-speed network switch optimized for interconnecting multiple AI-focused servers, and several preconfigured PODs of compute and network infrastructure designed for specific applications.
On the server side, Cisco's new UCS C885A M8 Server packages up to eight Nvidia H100 or H200 GPUs and AMD Epyc CPUs into a compact rack server capable of everything from model training to fine-tuning. Configured with both Nvidia Ethernet cards and DPUs, the system can function independently or be networked with other servers into a more powerful system.
