Multi-plane architectures have become increasingly prevalent in the Fat-Tree networks of AI data centers. By leveraging multiple ports on a single network interface card (NIC) or multiple NICs within a scale-up domain, each port or NIC is allocated to an independent network plane, thereby provisioning the overall system with multiple network planes. However, no prior literature has explored the application of multi-plane technologies to direct networks such as HyperX. This paper investigates the multi-plane HyperX network and demonstrates that, compared to state-of-the-art network topologies like multi-plane Fat-Tree, Dragonfly, and Dragonfly+, the multi-plane HyperX architecture achieves a significantly smaller network diameter and superior cost-effectiveness.
