The Fabric Interconnect F1-15 can also support InfiniBand connections at Quad Data Rate (QDR) speeds. QDR Fabric Interconnect F1-15 Rear Panel Components shows the Fabric Interconnect F1-15's rear panel with a QDR Fabric Board installed. The QDR Fabric Board is easily identifiable by the different layout of its 20 physical ports.

The front of a QDR Fabric Interconnect F1-15 has the same standard equipment—for example, power supplies, fans, and so on are the same between a QDR Fabric Interconnect F1-15 and DDR Fabric Interconnect F1-15.
