OSS Introduces World’s First PCIe Gen 4 Expansion System for NVIDIA A100 PCIe GPUs

One Stop Systems, Inc., a leader in specialized high-performance computing, has introduced the world’s first PCIe Gen 4 expansion system that fully supports NVIDIA A100 Tensor Core GPUs, which can boost computing performance up to 20X over the previous generation.

The OSS 4UV allows system developers to scale out almost any Gen 4 server by adding up to eight NVIDIA A100 GPUs. The system is ideal for boosting the performance of compute-intensive applications like AI training, AI inference, video analytics and XR rendering. For AI inference on INT4 sparse neural networks, the system can achieve peak computing operations of up to 19.9 PetaOPS.

The A100 GPUs can be interconnected via third-generation NVlink that offers 600GB/sec of GPU-to-GPU interconnect. The OSS 4UV also features two PCIe x16 Gen 4 slots that allow the latest generation of network interface controllers (NICs) to transport data throughout the datacenter or edge network.

While the OSS 4UV can connect almost any Gen 4 server to eight A100 PCIe GPUs and two NICs, OSS also offers a complete NVIDIA GPU cloud-ready solution with the OSS 4UV pre-installed in an OSS 2U-EOS-4a Gen 4 server.
