PNY NVIDIA NVLink Bridge, 2-Way, 2-slot

The PNY NVIDIA NVLink Bridge 2-Way (NVLBOARD-2WAY-SB) connects two compatible graphics cards. It creates a direct path for GPU-to-GPU communication, bypassing the bandwidth limits of the standard PCIe bus. This high-speed data exchange allows two GPUs to work in tandem in professional workstations or data centres. It supports 2-way configurations, enabling shared memory pools and task distribution across both cards. Professional visual computing and simulation workloads use this hardware to process large datasets across multiple GPUs. The 2-slot width configuration ensures the bridge aligns correctly with the graphics cards on the motherboard.

This bridge is compatible with several professional NVIDIA cards, including the RTX A6000, RTX A5000, and A100 80GB PCIe models. It also works with high-density compute hardware, such as H100 NVL and A40 data centre GPUs. Weighing 195 g, the bridge provides a secure connection between the NVLink interfaces on top of the graphics cards. Using this bridge helps mitigate data bottlenecks in demanding applications, such as AI training and high-performance computing. Installation requires two compatible GPUs with matching NVLink connector positions and a motherboard that supports the 2-slot spacing. This hardware provides a necessary link for researchers and engineers scaling GPU resources for rendering or CAD/CAE simulations.
