- Weight quantization: FP4
- Activation quantization: FP4
Release Date:
Version: 1.0
Model Developers:: Red Hat

Quantized version of Qwen/Qwen3.5-122B-A10B.

Model Optimizations

This model was obtained by quantizing the weights and activations of Qwen/Qwen3.5-122B-A10B to FP4 data type. This optimization reduces the number of bits per parameter from 16 to 4, reducing the disk size and GPU memory requirements by approximately 75%. Only the weights and activations of the linear operators within transformers blocks of the language model are quantized.

Deployment

Use with vLLM

This model can be deployed efficiently using vLLM.

Text-Only: Skip the vision encoder to free up memory for additional KV cache:

vllm serve RedHatAI/Qwen3.5-122B-A10B-NVFP4 --reasoning-parser qwen3 --language-model-only --moe_backend flashinfer_cutlass

Multimodal (Text + Image): Serve with full vision support:

vllm serve RedHatAI/Qwen3.5-122B-A10B-NVFP4 --reasoning-parser qwen3 --moe_backend flashinfer_cutlass

Tool Call: Enable tool use support:

vllm serve RedHatAI/Qwen3.5-122B-A10B-NVFP4 --reasoning-parser qwen3 --enable-auto-tool-choice --tool-call-parser qwen3_coder --moe_backend flashinfer_cutlass

Multi-Token Prediction (MTP): For speculative decoding:

vllm serve RedHatAI/Qwen3.5-122B-A10B-NVFP4 --reasoning-parser qwen3 --speculative-config '{"method":"qwen3_next_mtp","num_speculative_tokens":2}' --moe_backend flashinfer_cutlass
