At the OCP Global Summit, Hasan Siraj, VP, Product Management, Core Switching Group at Broadcom, reviews a year of momentum for Ethernet in AI infrastructure. He revisits the Ethernet for Scale-Up Networking work group that Broadcom launches with 11 partners at last year’s summit, and he describes its growth into a broad industry effort. He also outlines how hyperscalers and ODMs are turning the concept into deployed racks.

Siraj then turns to scale-out networking, an approach Broadcom first champions at OCP several years ago. He provides updates on Tomahawk 6, the Thor Ultra NIC, and a new multi-vendor specification developed with major AI players. He also explains how Broadcom’s commitment to open standards shapes the blueprints the industry uses to build AI clusters.

• How quickly industry support for the Ethernet for Scale-Up Networking work group grows, and where its specification stands today
• How many hyperscalers and ODMs are adopting Ethernet for scale-up, and what arrives in the next six months
• Why Siraj describes Ethernet as the industry’s consensus choice for scale-out networking
• What makes Tomahawk 6 stand apart, including its deployment options and its scale in a two-tier topology
• How the Thor Ultra NIC relates to both UEC and the newly published MRC specification
• Where Jericho 4 fits in Broadcom’s scale-across portfolio
• What Broadcom’s AI cluster design track offers for building open racks
