BCM957608-P1400GDF00 Brocade 400G PCIe 5.0 x16 Ethernet Network Card

High-Performance Low-Profile 400GbE PCIe 5.0 Ethernet Adapter featuring RoCE v2 RDMA with the BCM957608-P1400GDF00

The BCM957608-P1400GDF00 is a low-profile, single-port 400GbE Ethernet NIC designed for modern x86 and accelerated compute platforms that require deterministic east-west bandwidth and low CPU overhead. Built around the Broadcom P1400GD controller, the BCM957608-P1400GDF00 uses a PCIe 5.0 x16 host interface to sustain high-throughput packet processing and enable predictable performance under congestion-sensitive data center and HPC/AI fabrics.

With a QSFP112 400GbE interface, the BCM957608-P1400GDF00 aligns to leaf/spine uplinks, switch interconnects, and high-density server edge connectivity where fewer high-speed ports simplify cabling and reduce top-of-rack pressure. RoCE v2 RDMA support accelerates distributed training, storage, and microservice communication by shifting data movement closer to the adapter, improving latency consistency and freeing CPU cycles for application work. The low-profile form factor supports dense 1U/2U deployments while preserving PCIe expansion for GPUs, DPUs, and NVMe controllers.

Why Choose the BCM957608-P1400GDF00?

The BCM957608-P1400GDF00 delivers a strong density-to-performance ratio by combining a single 400GbE QSFP112 port with PCIe 5.0 x16 bandwidth, making it a pragmatic building block for scalable fabrics. For enterprise rollouts, the BCM957608-P1400GDF00 adds hardware security capabilities—Secure Boot, Remote Attestation, and Silicon Root of Trust—supporting verifiable provisioning and risk reduction in multi-tenant or regulated environments.

Brocade engineering focuses on reliable high-speed networking for data center standards, emphasizing interoperability, predictable link behavior, and long-lifecycle platform support. For security-conscious operators, Brocade’s hardware-rooted trust model supports controlled deployment pipelines and consistent compliance posture across fleet upgrades.
