And this:

As you can see these asics connecting together through network cables to combine a one unit.

What is these asics name and how can these asics cooled with out heat snick or fans?

Also , is there any well known asics the connect together through network cables one to anther (Not through hubs) in the market?

Thank you for your time.

I'm not sure who's farm that is, but all ASICs need to be cooled by heatsinks and fans.   The picture shows some giant fans even.  I think the main thing you need to be looking for when purchasing ASICS, is cost of the unit per hash as well as power efficiency.   Otherwise ROI might be an impossible goal.

The pictures show a big Chinese farm and are quite old. Probably over 6 months.
The boards look like from antminer s1, hard to tell.

i came a cross them one day on a site using my mobile and it was quick read there for i don't remember their names.

I am interesting on the technology that make them all connecting as one unit.

I don't need the exact name but any thing that work like this.
