There are two sockets per node. Communication between the two {{ibm|POWER9|l=arch}} processors is done over IBM’s {{ibm|X Bus}}. The {{ibm|X Bus}} is a 4-byte 16 GT/s link providing 64 GB/s of bidirectional bandwidth. A node has four [[PCIe Gen 4.0]] slots consisting of two x16 (with [[CAPI]] support), a single x8 (also with CAPI support), and a single x4 slot. One of the x16 comes from one CPU, the other comes from the second. The x8 is configurable from either one of the CPUs and the last x4 slot comes from the second CPU only. The rest of the [[PCIe]] lanes used for various I/O applications (PEX, [[USB]], [[BMC]], and 1 Gbps [[Ethernet]]).

The node has a Mellanox InfiniBand ConnectX5 ([[IB EDR]]) [[network interface card|NIC]] installed which supports 100 Gbps of bi-directional traffic. This card sits on a [[PCIe Gen4]] x8 shared slot which directly connects x8 lanes to each of the two processors. With 12.5 GB/s per port (25 GB/s peak bandwidth) there is higher bandwidth of 16 GB/s per x8 lane (32 GB/s peak aggregated bandwidth) to the CPU. This enables each CPU to have direct access to the [[InfiniBand]] card, reducing bottlenecks with higher bandwidth.
