The Falcon 5012 supports two scenarios: 10 GPUs or 8 GPUs + 4 Network cards, configurable in Standard Mode or Advanced Mode. Advanced Mode, requiring a Premium License, enables flexible, high-performance deployments.
1. 10 GPUs
2. 8 GPUs+ 4 Network cards
In the 10 GPUs scenario, each host can independently access the GPUs connected to its switch under Standard Mode.

In the 10 GPUs application scenario under Advanced Mode, two configurations are available.
In Advanced Mode, each switch supports 2 hosts and 5 FHFL devices. With 2 switches, the system can connect 4 hosts and 10 FHFL devices.

External expansion slots can be connected to retimers to support additional hosts. In this configuration, each switch supports 3 hosts and 4 FHFL devices, allowing 2 switches to connect a total of 6 hosts and 8 FHFL devices.

In the 8 GPUs + 4 Network cards scenario under Standard Mode, each host can independently access 4 GPUs and 2 Network cards on its connected switch.

In the 8 GPUs + 4 Network cards application scenario under Advanced Mode, three configurations are available.
In Advanced Mode, each switch at least supports 2 hosts, 4 FHFL devices, and 2 single-slot devices, enabling the system to connect 4 hosts, 8 GPUs, and 4 Network cards.

Users can designate one of the external expansion slots to connect additional hosts. In this configuration, each switch supports 3 hosts, 4 FHFL devices, and 1 NIC, enabling the chassis to support a total of 6 hosts, 8 FHFL devices, and 2 single-width devices.

Users can designate external expansion slots to connect additional hosts. In this configuration, each switch supports 4 hosts, and 4 FHFL devices, enabling the chassis to support a total of 8 hosts, and 8 FHFL devices.
