Marvell enters the AI network fray with 102.4 Tbps switch silicon
High radix, low latency and low power is what AI datacenters crave, the chipmaker says
COMPUTEX 2026 Marvell enjoyed a fillip from Nvidia chief Jensen Huang at Computex, who praised the firm as it unveiled the latest 102.4 Tbps switch silicon it has purpose-built for AI infrastructure.
The fabless semiconductor biz announced upcoming availability of its Teralynx T100 chip to coincide with the Taiwanese trade show, claiming that it needs 25 percent lower power than competitive solutions with lower latency for AI training and inference workloads.
But the firm is late to this party, as other vendors are already shipping their equivalent products, such as Broadcom’s Tomahawk 6 that launched last year, or Cisco’s Silicon One G300 announced earlier this year.
That didn’t stop Nvidia’s Huang from styling Marvell as the “next trillion-dollar company," and saying that its networking and connectivity chips are essential to datacenters where compute tasks are...
