PNY RTX6KNVLINKX16S2RKIT NVIDIA NVLINK HB Bridge for the Quadro RTX 6000 or RTX 8000 Retail KIT S2

PNY RTX6KNVLINKX16S2RKIT NVLink HB Bridge

Overview

The PNY RTX6KNVLINKX16S2RKIT is a high-bandwidth NVLink bridge designed to directly connect two NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 or RTX 8000 GPUs. This facilitates a 100 GB/s bi-directional data transfer rate, effectively doubling the memory capacity and bandwidth available to applications. This is critical for accelerating demanding AI, deep learning, and complex visualization workloads that exceed the capacity of a single GPU. The RTX6KNVLINKX16S2RKIT is a passive bridge requiring no external power, relying on the GPUs' thermal solution.

Compatibility

This NVLink bridge is specifically designed for use with NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 and NVIDIA Quadro RTX 8000 professional graphics cards. It requires a system with a PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot configuration for each GPU and sufficient physical space within the chassis to accommodate the dual-slot form factor of both the bridge and the connected GPUs.

Installation Notes

Installation involves seating the bridge firmly into the NVLink connectors on the top edge of each compatible Quadro RTX GPU. Ensure the bridge clicks into place securely. The GPUs must be installed in adjacent PCI Express x16 slots within the workstation or server. The bridge's passive design means it does not require separate power connections.
