Connecting InfiniBand Hosts
This section provides a brief overview for connecting your InfiniBand hosts. For detailed instructions,
see the documentation for the specific Host Channel Adapter
(HCA).
Use InfiniBand cables to connect the HCA in your host to the InfiniBand switch module of your
Cisco SFS 3012R Server Switch. To plug in an InfiniBand cable, push the connector into the interface
until you hear and feel a click. See
Figure 2-5
