Pretty sure he’s confusing it with either SFP+ or SFP28.
OSFP is the current bleeding edge with 400Gb/s of bandwidth. The current primary use case for that is ISP networks or running datacenter scale computing.
The going prices for a PCIE card seems to be about 2k and around 600 for a DAC-Cable alone… compared to this 200$ mini PC, OSPF is in a completely different customer segment.

Is that different from SFP?

I’m confusing nothing. Osfp is my desire. I have a purpose in mind. How else do you load an OS onto hundreds of AI hosts?
